I’ve been playing BG3 using Proton since Patch one. It went from running alright, too absolute shit, too Amazing recently. There was a period during EA where Vulkan wasn’t working at all. Possibly because they were optimizing. As of now, I run it 1440p, max or near max settings, on a mediocre PC with Proton 8.0x. It’s a truly beautiful game, and I’ve only seen about 75% of ACT 1…
So yes, although not natively supported, it runs perfect with Proton.
I know I’m super late to this post, but I just bought a brand new gaming laptop that came with w11. Was installing games to play and installed days gone. It refused to launch. Went over to my steam deck, installed it, and it ran flawlessly.
Moral of the story, w11 is so bad that sometimes games work better on Linux! 😂
this is what I have been dealing with on steam both Xorg and Wayland, it will launch after a really long time, wondering if this has anything to do with. Other games also work fine one steam is opened however
Afaik it's nearly impossible. Even the Index has a lot of issues and is I think somewhat semi abandoned in favor of the Deckard and because of their internal SteamOS change towards Arch. I would expect some news & improvements with the Deckard release but right now I wouldn't recommend it.
I would it is a higher percentage compared to the population that does not have a steam deck. Still a majority of Steam Deck + Windows PC owners though.
Have you tried using different proton versions wit hit? Launcher uses .NET/C# so it can be problematic. After the first execution you should be able to just add –launcher-skip to the command and skip it.
Execute steam with PRESSURE_VESSEL_SHELL=instead steam and launch the game. In the term it will open type “$@” (with the ") and paste output here, we’ll see what proton fusses about
What fascinates the most about desktop Linux and gaming on Linux that all of that was achieved with limited funding compared to Microsoft. Imagine what could be possible with more market share and more companies investing in the space. The current state is already great, but I believe we are just getting started.
I use ALVR on occasion for a quest 2: Tentacular, Jet Island, Gorn, Neos VR, SairentoVR run great after some tweaking. Have your rig plugged into a decent 5ghz router, I settled on 80hz refresh rate and bumped my packet size up to 8000B. <3
