Comment on [Help] Euro Truck Simulator 2 is not running full speed on Steam Deck.

The fact that it’s OpenGL matters little. It is a misconception that Vulkan is faster. But in this case, their implementation does seem slower.

Isn’t it true specifically on Windows, because the Windows implementation of OpenGL is lacking, but false on Linux?

Windows integrates only very early versions of OpenGL. Any modern release is implemented by the driver of your 3D accellerator/video card.
OpenGL on Windows has always been kinda of a disaster, DirectX support being more developed is night and day.
