The game plays flawlessly so far. You can watch the VOD of my stream. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SayZ7SQeCoI
Use GE Proton 8-XX! Proton 9 yields a black screen. And for the love of God do not remove the dlls people tell you to remove. That causes massive FPS drops in some areas.
I livestreamed the whole thing. Near the end I found 2 minor inconveniences for which workarounds are provided below.
- First a clarification on my previous report: It was my very first report ever so I did not know that merely using GE-Proton was considered "tinkering", so I wrongly reported that I had tried it without tinkering. I always use GE-Proton.
Now after playing the game FULLY from beginning to end. Here are the important points:
Use GE-Proton8-XX! Personally tested 8-25 and 8-32. DO NOT use Proton 9. It causes a black screen.
DO NOT remove libEGL.dll, libGLESv2.dll and d3dcompiler_47.dll as I saw mentioned in other reports. This will make it work with Proton 9. But will cause massive FPS drops.
There is a visual effect during the max affection event for each character that causes a massive FPS drop. This still happens, but it only lasts a few seconds. Wait it out and you will be fine.
I had the game crash when the credits were about to roll. Probably something to do with playing fullscreen. I did it again in a maximized window instead and the problem was solved.
Overall I had a great experience with the game, having just the 2 minor hiccups listed here.
