UrbenLegendTearing protocol merged for XWayland. Wayland gets closer to being suitable for gaming purposes
In what situations is this a blocker for gaming? Like, genuinely, who actually had any significant issues from it? Top 1% Counter Strike pros? I've been playing games on Wayland for ages and I never understood how anyone can think the experience is worse, let alone so bad it's unusable.
NyanixSame boat as UrbenLegend, it's noticeable when playing FPS's.
It's like the latency you experience when playing on modern game consoles, if you don't notice it, then that's great for you, but oncenyou get used to the low latency responses of PC gaming, it's really hard to go back, not so much for how it impacts how well you do, but because the latency suddenly feels like you lack control.
Most likely FPS games but probably any kind of game where you need a fast response time. I understand that some people don't notice input lag with vsync on, but for me it's unusable. I'm not even close to the "Top 1% Counter Strike pros" but when I'm playing Portal 2, CrossCode, Deep Rock Galactic, Valheim, CS Go, Path of Exile, etc, it bothers me A LOT.
