I had to install the Microsoft packages when prompted and set proton package to experimental then it launched!
Sweet! This game is a fun, chill time.
Well except when I fell into a toxic pit with all my stuff and died like 50 times trying to get it back.

…there are caustic pits now? I’ve only ever fallen into the void
Apparently this update changes what you lose when you die. By default now, you keep equipment, but lose items. There’s also an option in the menu to keep everything, or nothing, as you like.
Dose it run any better? I wanna make sure before I commit to updating
They updated to Unreal Engine 5 this time, and according to the comments it runs way worse, but who knows what settings they have active.
Lmao I love that it’s somehow worse I’ll just wait till they optimize it
The patch notes mentions all that new, fancy UE5 tech, so it’s no wonder it’s running worse. I don’t know if it’s looking better at the same time though, so you might be able to turn down some settings, and not lose as much performance.
Also, it’s the experimental branch, so it’s likely they’ll fix bugs and improve performance somewhat.
I haven’t played in a while, maybe once it gets released to the stable branch and mods are updated I might give it a shot.
Performance is terrible even on Windows. I’ve tried with a 3090 and a Radeon 5700. I can’t recommend moving to update 8 until they optimize the performance.
Thanks for letting me know!
