Linux native versions are usually subpar, due to them being a lot less maintained, sometimes even missing features. The only game that actually has better native Linux version that I'm aware of is Factorio and only because of reduced saving game stutter.

Why not put high quality assets as a free DLC. People can choose to download it if they can take advantage and skip it if not.

Quoting: MohandevirI just wish that this lawsuit is what's holding back Valve from releasing a Steam Controller V2.It's not. They circumvented patent on Steam Deck. I wish for Steam Controller v2 as well.

Quoting: GuestGreat for you that you are satisfied with subpar experience. Game still objectively runs way worse on Linux than it does on Windows, Proton version still runs better than "native" port. Being on Linux doesn't lower my standards and expectations one bit and thus my disappointment. IMHO instead of spending money making "native" Linux port they should invest money into OpenGL, or better yet Vulkan, renderer. Game would run identical to or better than Windows version.Quoting: bepopThat's really the crux of the matter: if someone is enjoying the game, and there are no performance issues that they feel impact that enjoyment, then does it really matter if the numbers game shows Windows as "better"?Quoting: ZlopezIf you don't have a point of reference (Windows version running on Windows) you may think that there are no performance issues...Quoting: bepopHm, I didn't saw any performance issues on my AMD RX 590. The multiplayer itself should be fixed in newer Feral ports, let's hope that the fixes from Total War: Rome Remastered get in the TW: Warhammer 3.Quoting: GuestPerformance is worse than running it with Proton and WAY worse than running it on Windows (3900x + 1080ti). Delayed patches and no multiplayer with Windows. It's a joke :sick:Quoting: bepopProton is better than half-assed ports. I'm looking at you Total War Warhammer II :<Curious, what do you find so bad about that port?
About the patches and DLC, I heard from few that they are running the game in Proton especially because of this, but I'm not kind of guy, who needs everything ASAP, so it's OK for me to wait a few more months. I would say that in this case the issue will be most likely on CA side, they probably don't give Feral much till released for windows version.
Now obviously that's extremely subjective and is going to depend on personal experiences and expectations. For example, I would rather a game that is always running at 30fps compared to a game that is 90% of the time running 60fps, but dips below 20fps for the remaining. I also cannot compare to Windows because I don't run it, at all. If it ran at a constant 60fps on Windows, then I still wouldn't play it; it literally doesn't matter how well it run on Windows because I won't play it there. What matters is how well it plays on GNU/Linux, and how much fun I have with the game.
