limited to 40 fps in the Steam overlay, battery draw was pretty low then.
Needed to use GE proton. Stock valve proton would crash occasionally.
Audio stutters, crackles, and occasionally disappears in some sections.
I had a few crashes for the first couple of hours, but have hit a section in the caves where I cannot proceed because the game always crashes on level load.
There were also crashes during the intro sequence, which can be avoided by esc to menu -> skip cutscene option.
Aside from the crashes, runs ok.
After using the touchscreen or the steam button + touchpad to change settings, controller input doesn't work
Game defaults to 720p, but also supports 800p. Which needs to be selected via touchscreen oder steam button + touchpad. On the next start it's not an issue and the game itself works great with the Deck's gamepad controls.

Forced to use "Ultra" quality for textures, otherwise the resolution of all textures drops off abnormally low, editing the configuration file manually might solve the problem.
Some shuttering in particle-rich areas.
The game seemed to work perfectly out of the box.

Does not start
Was working 1 year ago with a kernel version ~4.19. Now, it is not anymore with ~5.4 version. This could be a regression either from the kernel or the Nvidia driver.

Disabling Esync does not work, using different proton versions does not work, forcing older D3D does not work.


144fps maxed out



too dark in caves ever with maximum brightness, only light speculars on rocks is visible


Won't start. A "Fatal Error!" pop up appears right after the splash screen.

Game runs in VR without any workarounds needed. Performance seems acceptable.

With FAudio the Audio crackle is gone. Works now flawless in VR.

Desktop and VR version run great performance-wise. There is an repeating audio-crackle audible and volumes doesn't seen to to perfectly match, e.g. computer voice is too quiet. So it's not 100% platinum, but as the performance is really awesome, especially in VR, I'd rate it higher than gold.


The game itself runs perfectly fine. Only the problem is with crackling sound, but barely recognizable at standard volume levels.



latest version requires launch option to run "PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%" without quotes



HTC Vive. Nothing happens
