Broken since update 5.2
Tried various versions of Proton, as well as tricks listed here, but it just hangs on the initial screen and loads forever. It ran perfectly prior to update 5.2 so I assume something in the game has changed.
Unplayable. Mouse clicks barely register, and there's repeated lag spikes.
Runs perfectly with minor audio issues
Some audio echoing
Occasionally the audio will get stuck echoing, but that is a minor issue and doesn't really impact the enjoyment of the game.
Runs very well, with only minor occasional audio issues.
Occasionally audio loops
Run "protontricks 214510 d3dx9_41" in Terminal
Something strange is happening with the geometry of the game in one place, making one particular puzzle very challenging. It's not required for normal gameplay, and you can finish the game with no problems. However, it does affect being able to reach 100% and get 3 achievements.
The puzzle in question is just South of The Black Gate, and requires jumping on poles. Somehow the game does not let you onto the middle pole, so you just fall down. This only seems to be an issue when running on Linux as there are videos of people doing it easily on Windows.
After about 3 hours of non-stop attempts, I eventually succeeded using Eomer and jumping over the problematic pole by positioning myself in the middle of the pole to the right, and executing a double jump into a lunge landing on the left pole. Hard to pull off, but possible.
The game is unplayable due to graphical issues.
Major graphical issues. Many important graphics are invisible, including the gems that you need to match up.
Doesn't even launch
Hangs on "Installing Microsoft Direct X for Windows". Tried with multiple versions of Proton. Same result.
Unable to enter game
Apparently it thinks it's been launched from the game directory, even when started from Steam. Then exits immediately. D3D flag had no effect on the game.
Can't even get past the loading screen
With standard Proton the menu can be viewed, but the game crashes during loading once a gamemode is selected. With GE the game already crashes during initial loading of the menu. Can't even alt-tab out of the game, but have to kill it through the command line. 100% unplayable.
Doesn't even launch
By default tries to run launcher.sh which does not exist. Forcing various proton-versions like 7.0, GE, Experimental, all results in a JS error and no launch.
