What do you mean by 'just ticked the box to not be hostile towards Linux'?
I installed bazzite on my old desktop and just assumed I wouldn't be able to run vermintide 2. Does it run in proton now?
First installed it after leaving reddit with everyone else. I could only host for others/myself or play unofficial games. Connecting to others in off realm lead to a disconnect one minute in, when this check occured, no matter what. QP was unplayable, so it wasn't much fun.
Darktide released 100% working, so I dabbed in it for some time, before discovering that they undid that limitation in further patches for VT2 too.
EAC presented such possibility a lot of time ago, and only a year back FatShark implemented it.
So yeah, since that I downed a couple of hundred hours under Mint/Arch/Cachy with Proton, no trickery involved. It works pretty fine, I even had a chance to try it on an old laptop, so performance is at least on par with Win if not better. The only thing is that sometimes, like once in two weeks, it thought that it's files are corrupted and made me recheck them before allowing me to enter lobby.
Nice. Got it running with just a couple tweaks. Thanks, friend.
