I agree with you for the most part, but valve also is funding the developers behind the most important things out of proton. DXVK and vkd3d-proton were almost non-existent before Valve employed them.

Woooooo Fix for the Webview2 for Vermintide launcher. I can’t wait to test it out. Thanks glorious egg roll you are the best!

I’m playing this from this June I think, and it’s really a great game. Keep up the good work!

Yeah, I played it for a lot of time on my Linux desktop, and I never understood why it was unplayable on Steamdeck Nice work!

Well

I must be sincere, and say I would never expected this

It’s more players than Elden ring or Baldur’s gate 3 at launch.

I see you have already solved this with lutris, but checkout also https://heroicgameslauncher.com/ for epic.

Me on vermintide

As you can see here is gold on protondb, it is unsupported on deck only because it’s a really heavy game, and the deck does not have enough horse power to play well, but on my beefy desktop it works.

But yeah, the denuvo anti-tamper for sure does not help the performance.

Uhm aveum, and hogwarts works with proton for sure, because I played them with my Linux desktop. Aveum had some issues, but should work OOB now.

Forza I don’t know :/ Weird

No, we don’t.

Oh I never saw this one . Got a good laugh! Nice post!

I hope you already solved your problem. I have a 7800xt like you and bought it a week after it launched, I had a distro based on Ubuntu with xanmod kernel and Mesa from oibaf PPA So after I plugged in the GPU, I had to download the latest firmware.git and extract it on the right path, after this I just rebooted and everything was working good.

I tried vesktop two days ago, after using discord-screenaudio for over a year, and I’m in love with it. Check it out guys, it’s really good.

Radv is usually faster than amdvlk Except some edge case like ray tracing or some engine, you will get better performance with Mesa radv

You can even have both of them installed and use amdvlk only for games that works better there, but really they are not too many. These are some Phoronix tests on the matter if you want to check them out. ^^

I played for a lot of time Elder Scrolls Online on linux without any problems (except some addons) but in generally it works really well, without performance problems or something else. I used the official launcher with lutris and had a lot of good time playing it.

You can use the pipewire capture to do the remote play on wayland session.

You can try to use gamescope for that. Really useful for games that crash alt-tabbing

I am on Rx 6700 XT with Ubuntu and it works flawlessly

I’ll suggest you tu use a PPA to get the latest Mesa like kisak-mesa

Until two months ago I was using gnome Xorg to play my games. Then I bought a second monitor for my games station and I had to switch to plasma Wayland to still use the freesync. So now I’m using kde plasma to play , but I still prefer gnome, and probably switch over again after they implement the vrr patch for wayland.

Right now, you can use xorg or wayland with multiple monitors and different refresh rates without problems. What is really the problem, at least for me, it is the VRR( variable refresh rate) like freesync. If one of your monitor has it, and you need it while playing, for xorg with gnome you must have to turn off the other monitors, while with wayland the patch for it it’s not merged yet.
