ProtonDB doesn't have any report yet but YouTube is full of videos of content creators that got early access to the game. I was curious to know if anyone tried it with Proton and how it works...

EDIT I just installed it and it seems to work out-of-the-box for me on Ubuntu 23.10 with a AMD 7900 XTX and AMD 5800X. I'm getting around 55 fps at 3440x1440 with almost everything high beside having disabled V-Sync, DoF and Motion blur. AA set to TAA 2x.

Uh when is the last time you used proton? That's not even slightly true. I just beat Baldur's Gate 3, it "just work", zero issues from proton's side of things. I play Genshin Impact too, which works with zero configuration or anything. Even the anti cheat they made compatible with it.

I can attest to this. I don't play the absolute newest games, but I can't think of a single title that did not work with Proton-GE, without any tinkering past like... early 2022. It has been very smooth, no matter the kind of game. Of course, minus the known offenders like Destiny 2 or R6 Siege

Have you read the Proton patch notes? People work hard to make that work.
