Runs, but the performance is abysmal and requires using in game upscaling (but seems it is not Linux fault, same experience on Win10)
PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=50 %command%
Sound distortion from time to time. Seems that it tends to happen with pipewire and can be repaired with adding PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=50 %command% to launch options, I confirm it helped in my case.
PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=50 %command%
Distortion in audio solved with "PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=50 %command%" variable.
Some slight flickering of textures in Belfry during cutscenes. Not bad but noticeble.
Works well
I had some problems with the rotating inputs from controller (Xbox Series X) but those are game related, not due to Linux. Solution is in this thread (change right stick dead zone shape to cross in Steam controller configuration): https://steamcommunity.com/app/960910/discussions/0/3061869473051888155/
Some crashes in first two chapters wile changing locations.
This game on Linux with Nvidia GPU is a really bad combination
Some textures flickering, but main issue for me was terrible performance, I was getting around 30fps that would drop to single digit during fights. Sometimes FPS would be very low without reason and I would have to reload checkpoint to get it back to acceptable values. Struggled through few chapters and finally got to the point when it was totally unplayable with around 8-15 FPS. While looking for solutions I found that this game works really bad in Linux (especially on Nvidia) so i run it in Win10 and there I achieved around 60 FPS with occasional drops (to around 45). In game benchmark gave me results of Avg/Min/Max FPS of 28/14/39 in Linux and 57/7/75 in Windows 10.
I tried to use gamemode and some other commands to optimize performance but nothing helped, actually it usually made the game run even worse.
Update to might previous report - it works now
Controller causing micro stuttering.
I previously reported this game as borked and played it on Windows. After that I tried to run it again in Linux and it started working for some reason. My guess is that maybe some files where not correctly downloaded after switching compatibility and it got repaired when I run the game on Windows (I use the same directory for Steam on Linux and Windows). Runs well on mouse & KB, but with controller (Xbox Series X) there is some very annoying micro stuttering - FPS is very high but it looks very bad when you move or look around. Problem did not exist on Windows.
Works, but it is very heavy on CPU and requires a lot of VRAM - my HW is ok to play it but not optimal
Game crashed 4 or 5 times but almost all of the crashes were causes by unsufficient VRAM. It tends to use 4.5-5.2 GB of VRAM and it seems it sometimes does not free old stuff from VRAM when changing location leading to crash.
Runs well without tinkering
Very rare audio distortion - most likely would be solved with the PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=50 %command% but it was so rare I didn't even bother.
