Before I buy the game, how the game is running in Linux with proton?

protondb.com/app/2458310

It is running badly even on normal computers.

It is running badly even on normal computers.

Linux has a higher performance than Windows, I posted a thread, 17% FPS gain in some games and in steamdeck, with Linux, Hitman 3 run at 34 fps VS 19 in M$ spybloatware (link to benchmarks >> https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads...than-m-spyware-bloatware.151359/#post-9143132 )

The problem if it will run or not. Some games mainly those with Kernel level anti cheat wouldn't run.

The demo ran fine for me. No graphical anomalies. Shit performance no matter how much I lowered settings. Ryzen 5800X + 6750XT @ 1440p (no scaling bullshit). Could barely reach 60fps.

 

[Cryomancer]

Bought the game.

Can't play.Launched for the first time. The game demands that I install VC++. I install. The game suddenly closes and ask the same thing, I click yes, goes to a UNinstall option. Tried --skip-dependencies and WINEDLLOVERRIDES="msvcp140=n;vcruntime140=n" %command% but the game wouldn't launch, no matter what.

I tried find ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2458310/pfx/drive_c/windows/ -name "vcruntime140_1.dll"
And the DLCs are found in the correct place. Also tried WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/2458310/pfx winetricks -f vcrun2017 vcrun2015 vcrun2013 vcrun2010 and nothing. Same C++ check.

Are you running it with Steam's Proton or with some other launcher? What wine version are you using?

Are you running it with Steam's Proton or with some other launcher? What wine version are you using?

Was with steam and proton GE, the most recent version. But I did it, installed the game and run it.

So far, I will be honest. Is a mixed bag.

What I didn't liked?

• Cooldowns
• Your spell damage seems to scale with weapons my Poison bolt spell went from 1 to 11+d6 damage after I equipped a staff. This is D3 tier bad.
• So far, I can't use celestial or occult magic, types of magic that are imo more interesting than the current type of magic
• Elves are taller than humans and can have beard.
• Too long loading even in a SSD
• The game is too heavy
• The beginning, walking with hospital clothing in a destroyed place was booooring.

What I liked?

• Multiple ways to solve even the most basic quest
• Skill checks everywhere
• No pronouns
• No body types 1/2
• Hot woman
• The setting
• 3 cool options for tech and 3 cool options for magic later in development.
• Magic seems to corrupt you. I like it and hope that is good implemented.
• Animations in TB aren't slow.

Just a first impressions of about half hour of game.

[*]Elves are taller than humans

IIRC Tolkien's elves are generally taller than humans, with even she-elfs clocking in at six feet at a minimum. Don't use the basterdized D&D version as the standard.

and can have beard.

This is unacceptable.

 

[Heroic Liberator]

[*]Elves can have beard.

This is unacceptable.

Indeed. Beards are reserved only for real men, not elv*n pansies))

 

[The Wall]

WOKEfication and DE-WOKEfication of game tracks perfectly along changing results of American cultural and political war. If Kamala Harris had won, I could bet my entire horse cock WITH balls that gave would have had pronouns. Ukraine, is afterall sunflower vassal that turns around her Sun Master, USA. Cute and sad. Still not sold on game

Such a high T race that even the womyn have beards.

Is not bastardized D&D version is the original Germanic folklore creature.

They are a type of Fae

Ukraine, is afterall sunflower vassal that turns around her Sun Master

Can you name one Concord tier woke game from Ukraine?

 

[TheKing01]

Game's good so far, lots of proper dialogue choices.

Not a lot of VO though, so if that bothers you might want to wait for the full release to see if that changes.

Círdan had a beard in The Lord of the Rings. Mahtan, Feanor's father in law, had one too. Tolkien 'toyed' with the concept that Elves would have beards in the third cycle of their lives, tho some latter writtings contradicted this.
