In 3 hours Cities: Skylines II will launch: is there any report on how it runs with Proton? (lemmy.world)

ProtonDB doesn't have any report yet but YouTube is full of videos of content creators that got early access to the game. I was curious to know if anyone tried it with Proton and how it works...

EDIT I just installed it and it seems to work out-of-the-box for me on Ubuntu 23.10 with a AMD 7900 XTX and AMD 5800X. I'm getting around 55 fps at 3440x1440 with almost everything high beside having disabled V-Sync, DoF and Motion blur. AA set to TAA 2x.

Have you read the Proton patch notes? People work hard to make that work.

Yes, but generally it's not "the community" like how mods work, it's a project run by Valve who controls the review and release process. Sometimes patches come from "the community," and sometimes they come from paid developers, but they all go through Valve.

You can choose to use a community Proton build like GloriousEggroll's builds, but them that's something more like a mod than a patch to an official project.
