  • Gris
  • Balatro
  • mirror's Edge
  • Horizon Forbidden West (saving this one for desktop)

E: refunded Mirror's Edge, it was running at like 5 FPS on low settings.

E2: picked up Mirror's Edge on GoG instead for the same price ($3). Disabled PhysX and it runs like a dream.

In the future try checking ProtonDB before buying/refunding. For Mirror's Edge in particular, it seems all you have to do is disable PhysX.

ProtonDB is an amazing tool, everyone should check it out!

Nice. Well I happened to see it on sale on GoG and I prefer to buy from there anyway so I'll give it another try.

Gris is great. Small, but beautiful.

If anyone can afford it, I recommend the Neva + Gris bundle. Neva is even better, IMO.

mirrors edge is a gem, and i played the whole thing on deck years ago, it ran flawlessly!

Were there any physx settings turned on when running Mirror's Edge? It can bring a 5090 to it's knees due to removal of 32bit physx support. Great recent gamer's nexus video on it. Anyway, physx running on the CPU with Mirror's Edge kills fps

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yes. What do I do about that?

[–] Snoopey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 8 months ago

Basically only option right now is to turn off anything physx in older games like mirrors edge. Should solve the fps issue
