How does it run using Proton?

[Pavouk106]

Hello,

is there anybody who plays this game using Proton in Steam (playing on Linux)? How does the game run (no glitches?) and what is your hardware (I mean what kind of CPU and GPU you use)?

Thanks for any possible answers!

game runs smoothly with the new proton beta 16.8, but some grafic issues are also there. look at protondb.com, there are many games tested by users and some good tricks e.g. starting issues or anything.

Many thanks! Would you mind describing your setup a little? GPU and drivers (open source
/ proprietary) would be just enough.

I will probably buy it at some point. It's not bad having it on PS2, PS Vita and buy it also for PC, is it? The best of the best, number one for me.

My setup: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS, 8gb RAM, i7 4710HQ, gtx860m, nvidia 415 driver.
It doesn't need high specs.
But, don't buy it if want to play on linux only. Proton is still in beta-testing, graphical issues and glitches are still there and they are many. FFX works for me since the last beta of Proton, before...no chance.

Conclusion:
On Windows 10, the game runs great for me, no issues or crashes
But on linux, well...is a great experiment, for fun, not for heavy using.

p.s. sorry for my bad english

English is ok. If I can ask you - stay subscribed to this thread please. I will eventually come back before buying (may be a few months or even years from now) and I will ask about how it works in the future. You have just the right setup (very much like mine, but higher specs). I will run it on Linux only, so your feedback is very welcome for me. Thank you!

I doubt performance would be an issue.
Granted I'm not running proton, but I can run the game smoothly on the Ryzen 2500U's integrated GPU.

Not a highly demanding game.

This is not so much about HW requirements. It's more about SW/HW compatibility when using Proton. I was expecting it will run on Nvidia graphics with proprietary (Nvidia original) driver. But I didn't know what to expect - will it run? will it run slower? will there be some artifacts or graphical issues?

I think this game is not very demanding but I wanted to know hot it runs on Linux and which hardware was used.

I will buy it eventually (now replaying on PS Vita).
