For what it's worth, I'm REALLY having a lot of fun with the game. It truly scratches the outer-space-open-world/universe vibe. Yes it definitely has some perf issues, but even still, the game they've crafted is a ton of fun. Give it a try!

on steam, if you click the cog settings for the game, go to properties, under the general section there's a drop down selector for dx11 / dx12. No need to use launch parameters.

Quoting: ShmerlFor whatever reason, the game disables the option to choose between DX11 and DX12, but you can force DX12 mode with -dx12 parameter.

I'm running a 6800xt and getting pretty poor performance with 3440x1440. Normally I can run most anything on high/ultra, but definitely not here. Definitely seeing low fps as well as stuttering.
Then on top of that, every single cutscene completely crashes the entire game. Seems the vram overflows and crash. So I have to skip every single cutscene. I can rewatch them in the menus but still. The optimization is REALLY bad here in linux.
Hopefully give it a little while and a few patches might fix things up.

Quoting: 1xokThe game does not reach 60FPS, at least in WQHD with a 67xx XT, even with DXVK/Proton. Is the performance the same under Windows? How are things on the Deck? As a German, I would like to support the studio. Unfortunately, we don't have that many in Germany (any more).

yeah lol - that kind of stuff happens ALL the damn time. It's good as well. There are plenty of reasons to be upset about how taxes are spent, this is definitely not one of them.

They also have this in their most recent "launch day" post on the steam store page. I'm not really sure I understand their claims though. They are saying that Unreal Engine is basically totally broken in linux? Don't other native linux games use ue4?
Here's how to run Diablo 4 on Steam Deck

Any other people running the beta D4 on linux? I'm on Manjaro, and running it through the listed methods in this article, and when it's running, it works great! BUT it's crashing a ton. So much so that I can't even complete longer dungeons really. It crashes the entire steam app. I have to open steam and restart, requeue, etc... Not sure if thats because of the methods listed here, or it's the GE proton version, or if it's the beta of the game itself.

Thank you very much for this article! It was super helpful getting it installed. I'm downloading it now, but I'm sure I'll just hit a massive queue.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80Quoting: jordicomaWhat? Atari is alive? I thought that only were releasing their old games and the vcs.
It's a zombie company eating another company. Hopefully don't become a zombie too.
I mean kinda it's more like a company bought Atari name back in the early 00s so it's more like they are a corporate company wearing Atari corpse

Warside is a pixel-art turn-based tactics game much like Advance Wars

Game looks and sounds great, but I have had SO MANY bad experiences on kickstarter I just can't support it there. I will wishlist it when it hits steam EA, but other than that I wish it good luck.
