    Glad they tried it in act 3 where fps starts being a problem, too many reviews only checked act 1 for performance

    Hope they release it on GOG. That’s the one I use on my Deck.

    I really want to play this game, but I can’t stomach brain-parasite stuff :(

      You could look at the mods and checks if some remove the brain visuals. And don’t go on the first floor during the intro :p

      It’s quite tame, they’re basically just acting ot a headache while the narrator says some stuff.

        I mean, apart from the intro, OC should definitely skip it.

    Is it available to replace my existing install?

      it should use the linux version automatically, as long as you don’t have any overrides in the compatibility (proton) settings

      It auto updated for me on Steam Deck and Bazzite, so if you’re using either of those it should be.

    They pointed out Cronos was blurry using Proton. Looking at the footage, the same was true of Balder’s Gate 3. What’s up with that? Just a matter of sharpening? The resolution does seem to be the same by looking at the aliasing.

      FSR2 looks like trash all around. I don’t understand why it’s so common and why FSR 3.1 isn’t included, given how so many workarounds exist when you tinker with 3rd party apps to enable the functionality work so well.

      I will say half-rate shade render or whatever it’s called was a game changer being turn off. Between my bad eyes and playing on a hand held I thought reading text just wasn’t going to happen. Turns out I’m not THAT blind and it was just that setting
