As it is not possible (at least it wasn't for me) to change the Resolution to 1440p in the Launcher I did this manually. If you want to do this to I'd recommend changing the values of 2 seperate .ini files to be on the safe side.
- Open
ThePathOfYourSteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Fallout 4/Fallout4Prefs.iniand change the value of Height and Width to suit your liking - Open
ThePathOfYourSteamLibrary/377160/compatdata/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/Fallout 4/Fallout4Prefs.iniand also change the Width and Height to your liking
I also encountered problem activating fullscreen, so be aware that this can be a problem.
If activated manually via the .ini files the came did not start anymore
The Launcher was not responding to any input from me so I was forced to manually change the resolution in the .ini files, altough it did automatically set the graphics settings to "Ultra" on start (I still needed to force close it through Steam).
To be able to even start it I needed to rename the Games main Executeable and the Launcher (Fallout4.exe -> Fallout4Launcher.exe; Fallout4Launcher.exe -> Fallout4.exe; both are in PathOfYourSteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Fallout 4/) as it is not possible to easily skip the Launcher in another way.
The problems I encountered may be caused by Wayland and/or Hyprland as other users did not encounter them, as far as I'm aware of.
Stuttering. More when Vulkan shaders aren't precompiled (can take up to 1h), less when they are, but they never vanished completely.
I was only able to start the game when it was installed in the 'main partition' (the one / is on). On an otherwise mounted partition it was unable to start. The later problem might be because it was an NTFS partition, I did not test it on another ext4 partition.

Normal Hyprland/Wayland shenanigans that can be fixed with Gamescope and/or the Hyprland config (~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf)
Would work totally fine out of the box. Gamescope is necessary because of the "normal" Wayland/Hyprland shenanigans with monitors and incorrect max. resolutions.
Sometimes I have slight stutters or crackling. But this only happens sometimes and then like once every 15 minutes or so.
Sometimes text is a bit kinda blurry. Not really annyoing but it happens from time to time
Sometimes Input is laggy or the camera would drift in one direction. This only happens when the game is running for quite a while and then for only a minute or so. In total it's relatively rare
