I wonder how (un)playable it would be on my machine with Ryzen 5600 and Radeon 6800? It's basically my childhood dream game, yet it slide from my radar after release controversy and then I never got to it.
I have Ryzen 5600G and Radeon RX 6650 XT, and surprisingly, the game runs very smoothly on my 2K 144Hz display. In the graphics settings, I set the preset to Enhanced and FSR to Quality. When I'm on a planet, MangoHud reports ~90 FPS, but in reality, it feels like 120–144 FPS. I know it's upscaling, but I can't spot any artifacts at all!

Back in 2013, out of boredom, I bought my first game on Steam - Left 4 Dead 2, it was on a discount for about US$1. Little did I know that in a few years I'd have a library with hundreds of games, 95% of which are now perfectly playable on Linux, thanks to Proton. :grin:

Quoting: Guest*Still waiting for Kernel 5.9 CUDA fixes* ._.
It has been fixed already! See here [External Link]. This was posted just now, but strangely, on Arch, CUDA was working on 5.9 for a couple of weeks now (at least for me).
