Resident Evil 2

Resident Evil 2 Plays Peachy Under Linux

by

I played RE2 a little bit under Linux last night, and surprisingly it runs almost as if it was natively released for the platform. I turned up everything I could, making sure to utilize as much of the GPU as possible, and it didn’t crash once. I always like seeing newer titles with few flaws working under Proton/Linux.

I’ve been experimenting with OBS recordings, as it appears that unlike the Windows version of OBS I’m able to record games that use the Vulkan API. I tested it earlier with DOOM, and while it did record it did also overload the encoder. I didn’t have time to test Resident Evil 2 and other games running through Vulkan, but now that I have a fully loaded OBS to record with under Linux I’ll have to do some more science.

I took a little time aside to play a bit of the Resident Evil 2 remake. I’m almost an hour and a half in but I’m really liking it, and I’ve already got a ton of achievements. Doing my first playthrough as Leon Kennedy. My graphics card is running balls out on this game, and the framerate continues to still be amazing. These last few Capcom games I’ve played have been really good ports. They’ve definitely come a long way since the DMC3 port that I can almost forgive them for now. I also found there are quite a few mods on the nexus that I might have to install, so far I’m running vanilla. Can anyone recommend me some mods? I’m already planning to install the one that increases the zombie framerate above 30. I think I might also try The Witcher mods.
