Lately, I decided to switch into wayland (from kwin_x11 + X11 to kwin_wayland).

I tested three games till now (Civ6, Tomb Raider and Batman: Arkhan Origins). Two first are native, I play Batman using proton. From the list only Civ6 do not ran. There wasn't any problems running two others, but some lags in some moment in Tomb Raider.

Which game do you play on Wayland lately, which compositor do you use and what's about your impressions?

Civ 6 worked well, but I must modify launch script to exec to ./Civ6Sub instead of launcher.

Added a workaround to make Civilization 6 launchable from Epic Games Store, thus making it completely playable, at least in the DirectX 11 mode.

I do not compare with X.org, but Civilization: Beyound Earth work well under Wayland (KWin-Wayland).
