    In-game videos and some blur effects don’t render. I did not have time to really investigate whether its Proton lacking or just NVIDIA sucking.

      Oh, its probably Proton then. There are or were number of games on Proton that were not playable because the videos didn’t work. It’s some sort of video driver issue or so. Depending on when you tried it, they might already updated it. There were number of fixes in recent months about video related issues.

      If not a new normal Valve Proton version fix is, maybe the great alternative Proton GE could. In case if you find yourself trying it out again.

        I think it is related to Unity and some addon. Thanks for the tip with GE. I will try it when I have a bit more time. The game is still installed.

          Great. Note looks like you are not familiar with GE? The installation is simple, just download the archive and unpack it under .local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d (or where your Steam is installed), so that you get something like .local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/GE-Proton11-6-x86_64. Just unpacking the archive basically installs it. Restarting Steam is enough. There are tools that manage these custom Proton versions. I leave you a few relevant links:

          It has additional fixes to Proton and is often more up to date. Some launchers such as Heroic Launcher I think integrate it too, so its usable outside Steam. I linked a gui tool to manage that, but you don’t need a manager if you simply download and unpack the archive yourself.

          Edit: And no I am not an Ai, lol I just noticed my reply sounded a bit robotic.
