Steam version doesnt work. Buy GOG version instead and run in Lutris
I bought the steam version initially, i tried out-of-the-box settings, didnt work. neither did proton experimental nor proton-GE. I attempted UESP's reccomended settings, and i tried downloading a recent version of dosbox and run it through there. All attempts failed until I bought the GOG version, installed Lutris, set up my account on Lutris, installed it through there, and it ran FLAWLESSLY
Works excellently. Best used with Steam's stable proton versions
So far this is the most stable game ive reviewed on protondb. Best used with the most recent stable proton version. 0 bugs, 0 stability-problems, 0 audio problems, its amazing.
Unfortunately, Glorious Eggroll's "GE-Proton" caused problems where every hour or so, my monitor would go pitch-black and i could hear gameplay ongoing. After 20 seconds th e screen would turn back on. Again tho, this only occured on the GE-Proton, not steam's default proton.
Sekiro detected my Ducky One 3 SF Keyboard as a controller. Needed to unplug my keyboard BEFORE booting up the game to get my controller detected. Controller is an Xbox Elite Series 2
Only the occasional FPS drop
Luckily the Steam version of Redguard works better than the GOG version. Use custom proton. Mostly works out of the box except the steam version notoriously has a bug where, every once in a while (particularly inside buildings or looting bodies) the game will bring up the console, report a crash error, and then will crash, in which case you will need to look up redguard console commands and either add the item to your inventory or use the console to teleport. Alternatively, I've also found after clicking "play", before the game boots, to click "windowed mode". As another alternative, if you go into your games files and look up DIG.ini, name it something else (temporarily), loot the body or do whatever you need to do that is crashing your game, then afterwards save, close the game, and rename it back to DIG.INI
Works fine out of the box. OpenMW is still reccomended for even further performance boosts, bug fixes, and graphical enhancements

Initially after install and booting up the menu, the oblivion launcher could not find the oblivion game executable, so I had to initiate the following changes:
In Oblivion_default.ini i needed to make the following Oblivion_default.ini changes. Then I needed to install, follow the instructions carefully xOBSE, Oblivion Display Tweaks, and the Unofficial Oblivion Patch
Performance problems cleared up after installing xOBSE, ODT, UOP, and enabling hyperthreading
