For some reason FSR is completely broken in this game and will cause significant hitching and stutters every few seconds, disable FSR.
Game resolutions were completely ignored if running this game inside of Gamescope, i ended up not using gamescope for this title.
You haev to disable FSR otherwise the game stutters like crazy only use TAA
Do not use Gamescope or FSR!
Xbox one controller not detected, keyboard controls are too complicated
Xbox one controller does not work
Crashes at the main menu
I tested this on two different systems with AMD and Nvidia GPU with same results, this game is completely broken as of this posting.
If you have AMD Navi hardware you will likely have lots of graphical glitching.
Game is unplayable because of artifacts on several models, mostly the NPCs and your own character, triangles exploding out of models and textures rotated incorrectly, while the game runs, the experience is just terrible and the game can not really be played, likely something with AMD Navi hardware.
Performance is very bad at times definitely bordering on the unejoyable low fps experience
DXVK_FRAME_RATE=40 %command%
Text is a bit small to read at times when making choices
Performance tanks bad in Fullscreen, best to stick to Borderless
It is very slow at times dipping down in to the 20fps range
Expect low performance if playing on steam deck.
This review was written on launch day of the game and as of right now the game is 100% unplayable on the steam deck.
Reduced graphics to Low with FSR2 Performance
noticable screen door effect because of such low resolution with FSR2
dips to 20fps, absolutely unplayable on Steam Deck!
Initial Shader complie on main menu takes over 1 hour to complete and tends to happen again on subsequent launching of the game.
Avoid purchasing this game if your goal is to play it on the steam deck, performance is bad and will render game unejoyable.
gamescope -f -e -U -w 3840 -h 2160 -W 3840 -H 2160 -- gamemoderun DXVK_ASYNC=1 WINEFSYNC=1 MANGOHUD=1 bash -c 'exec "${@/2KLauncher\/LauncherPatcher.exe/TheQuarry.exe}"' -- %command% -dx12
Blinking
Avoid getting this game for now if you are playing on Linux, its just not ready yet!
gamescope -f -e -U -w 3840 -h 2160 -W 3840 -H 2160 -- gamemoderun DXVK_ASYNC=1 WINEFSYNC=1 MANGOHUD=1 bash -c 'exec "${@/2KLauncher\/LauncherPatcher.exe/TheQuarry.exe}"' -- %command%
Do not use -dx12 it causes blinking and artifacts
Do not try to run the game with -dx12 it causes flickering and artifacts in lighting and is very distracting and makes game basically unplayable, using dx11 the game runs farily well, only just some performance issues where it can not maintain 60+ fps
