I spent a couple hours trying to get Baldur's Gate 3 running on Linux. It was rough but I got it to run at 1440 but the latency made it sort of unplayable. It runs great in Windows 10 at 4k with the default settings. I have some other windows-only software so I guess I'm going to "upgrade" all my computers that are able to do so but I don't feel good about it. All my computers dual boot windows/linux, I would love to be linux-only.

Edit: lots of people are saying theirs runs smoothly, I'm going to have to do further testing. Thanks for the input!

Take advantage of your store's refund policy as needed, but I can count the games I've had compatibility problems with on one hand, and one of them is because Indiana Jones is pushing ray tracing as mandatory.
