Damn it, i need to figure out how to get this game running again on Linux/Steam. Ever since 1.62, it just crashes after a few minutes.
At least I'm getting more dev work done since I'm not spending as much time in Night City.
wow I have the gog version and I was wanting to buy it on steam to make things easier, so thanks for the heads up.
lastest gog version + lutris + GE wine worked great for me, but I deleted the offline installer and is a chore downloading the 30 parts and constantly backing up my saves manually so that's why I was thinking of jumping to steam.
Hah, it has gold status on protondb and is steam deck verified. Every time I hear sth like this it makes me push back from switching to linux for gaming for another year
To be a bit fair to Linux, posts on both Steam's Community hub and Protondb show that this bug also happened to some Windows users around patch 1.62 as well. So I'm not completely convinced this is solely a Linux issue. I'm honestly just happy the state of Linux gaming is progressing along.
Oh same, I am really excited for the day that linux has parity with windows in terms of gaming stability and performance because that is pretty much the only thing stopping me from switching fully. It is much better and I'm happy with my steam deck, but we're not quite there yet I think, linux is still playing catch-up in most cases.
