Good thing is, it runs flawless on my Linux desktop too 👍 Just one of the best games I played in years. Good it payed out for larian to invest so much time into it. Maybe a good example for others that you do not need to rush a launch.

I can also mention that it works flawlessly on Linux even with the GoG version (still through proton). It's uncommon for such games to be on GoG day one, and I wouldn't have bought it otherwise.

Oh nice, I went with GOG as well and was wondering if I'd be able to get it running on Linux.

Why do you use Proton instead on WINE? I've never tried, so I'm curious if I should look into it.

It is not recommended to use Proton outside of Steam. Use Wine + DXVK instead for GOG.

Good to know, thanks!
