I capped my FPS to 2x my monitor's refresh rate because in-game V-Sync makes the game unplayable (unstable 10-30 FPS). Without V-Sync, the game runs at 1000+ FPS, which is just a waste of power.

About as good an "out the box" experience as one could ask for. Given proton translates DirectX to Vulkan instructions, I'd recommend choosing Vulkan when presented with the options on startup. Runs flawlessly

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

Constant microstutters if I had the framerate limited to 60 fps (same as my display) through MangoHud. Setting the limit to 144 fps through "Launch Options" seemed to fix that. I think DXVK hade better performance but not a big difference overall. Also turn off V-Sync.

Launching with Vulkan kept triggering false R2 inputs on controller

For me launching with Vulkan lead to controller being pertty much unusable. Others report the DirectX launch option being graphically broken.
