Getting 30-40 fps on a modern system. It's using ~30% of all CPUs but little to no GPU (although nvtop says it is using vram). It feels like it must be doing software rendering or something.. Tried both linux native and proton versions. Does anyone here have any idea how to make it perform better?

Edit: It just started working fine on the linux version.

Could try running it under mangohud. Dunno if that indicates the renderer being used, but I'd guess that it likely does, and would let you test that theory.

One Windows user here had some problem with very low FPS in the game, and found that limiting FPS in the Nvidia software resolved it. I'm suppose that it's not impossible that it's some bug in the game that you're also tripping.

Just tried running it with mangohud but mangohud doesn't show up for some reason. But I ended up switching back and forth between proton and linux versions and the linux version just started performing well for no apparent reason. Didn't update the os or anything. Thanks everyone for sending my pc good vibes :)
