This is one of those I've been waiting to leave EA to play, but it seems it's ALSO one of those that might be forever in EA. They don't even have an estimated release date on the store page lol. Might just have to try it out on the Deck.

I agree with @ElectricPrism re intel / nvidia. I greatly prefer AMD for anything linux related, so as long as I can customize it with amd cpu and gpu, then great, but if not, I'm sorry but I'll look elsewhere.

Much more looking forward to their custom laptop launch! Also will be interesting to see where the Cosmic DE goes.

I have the demo downloaded but haven't gotten around to it. Have any other lovers of crpg's played it / can comment on it?

I just don't know if releasing this game THREE WEEKS after Baldurs Gate 3 comes out is a wise idea. I don't have time in my life for two incredibly complex extremely long crpgs at the same time, and I'm 100% playing bg3 (but lets be honest I would play a game made of a leather shoe if it was made by larian) so ........... oof timing.

Thanks to this site, I use this tool and absolutely LOVE IT. Big thanks to the maintainers of this project and of course the GE team.

For what it's worth, I'm REALLY having a lot of fun with the game. It truly scratches the outer-space-open-world/universe vibe. Yes it definitely has some perf issues, but even still, the game they've crafted is a ton of fun. Give it a try!

Quoting: ShmerlFor whatever reason, the game disables the option to choose between DX11 and DX12, but you can force DX12 mode with -dx12 parameter.

on steam, if you click the cog settings for the game, go to properties, under the general section there's a drop down selector for dx11 / dx12. No need to use launch parameters.

Quoting: 1xokThe game does not reach 60FPS, at least in WQHD with a 67xx XT, even with DXVK/Proton. Is the performance the same under Windows? How are things on the Deck? As a German, I would like to support the studio. Unfortunately, we don't have that many in Germany (any more).

I'm running a 6800xt and getting pretty poor performance with 3440x1440. Normally I can run most anything on high/ultra, but definitely not here. Definitely seeing low fps as well as stuttering.

Then on top of that, every single cutscene completely crashes the entire game. Seems the vram overflows and crash. So I have to skip every single cutscene. I can rewatch them in the menus but still. The optimization is REALLY bad here in linux.

Hopefully give it a little while and a few patches might fix things up.

yeah lol - that kind of stuff happens ALL the damn time. It's good as well. There are plenty of reasons to be upset about how taxes are spent, this is definitely not one of them.

They also have this in their most recent "launch day" post on the steam store page. I'm not really sure I understand their claims though. They are saying that Unreal Engine is basically totally broken in linux? Don't other native linux games use ue4?

Any other people running the beta D4 on linux? I'm on Manjaro, and running it through the listed methods in this article, and when it's running, it works great! BUT it's crashing a ton. So much so that I can't even complete longer dungeons really. It crashes the entire steam app. I have to open steam and restart, requeue, etc... Not sure if thats because of the methods listed here, or it's the GE proton version, or if it's the beta of the game itself.
