Quoting: amataiI play on proton with good performance (45 FPS good quality) on a Nvidia GTX960. only issue is some invisible monsters but apparently it is solved on Linux 5.0 so I wait for the stable release.
I have tried Wine+dxvk on the gog version first but it had terrible quality.
Install the 415 branch of drivers, eg 415.25 or 415.27.

Quoting: legluondunetHello,
before to buy this game, could you tell me if it is possible to play in good conditions with last Proton/Wine version? Cinematics play ok? Gamepad ok? N more glitchs or flickering?
If I were you, I'd get the GoG version and use Lutris to assist with the Wine config. Either way, you can return the game if it doesn't work I guess.

Just for the reference, you don't really need any special config besides dxvk. Everything else works out of the box with stock Wine.

Except you can't. If you downloaded a game from GOG, they don't have the option of the refund going back to your bank account - you instead get it in store credit.

On Steam, you can choose whether the refund goes back to your card / bank account, or the Steam wallet.

Not according to their documentation: https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000487189-Money-Back-Guarantee-Policy

They clearly say there it goes back to your payment source, not just to store credit.

Well, when I once tried refunding on GOG, they only offered me store credit...

You can contact their support to double check this, but it should go to your payment source surely. If I remember correctly, they offer store credits in case of regional pricing offset compensation.

Latest amdvlk finally supports VK_EXT_transform_feedback, though it's still experimental and is hidden behind environment variable switch. To enable it, do:

export AMDVLK_ENABLE_DEVELOPING_EXT='VK_EXT_transform_feedback'

dxvk finds it in result!

After last Steam update, I lost my savegame (I have to manualy copy them into a new The Witcher 3 folder) and the performance were divided by 4-5.
