Any #linux #gamers out there have any luck running #ffxiv? I've tried the xivlauncher flatpak on Mint, and the game *runs* but I get like 8 fps. Using the exact same hardware as my wife, who runs the game with no issues on Windows.

(I'm content to keep playing on console, but I want to see if I can try to lure her away from Windows. Being able to keep using xivlauncher would likely be non-negotiable for her.)

I was initially using x11, but switching to Wayland doesn't fix the issue. The in-game configuration can't seem to see my graphics card which could be part of it.

I had absolutely no issues in installing and running it with xivlauncher, but I used the AUR package (which isn't available on Mint unfortunately). Needed some Tweaks to get ACT running, but thanks to IINACT and Lmeter this works perfectly now forunately.

I think it needs some tinkering to get it to work, I mean, it runs already, just with bad performance. Have you checked the settings, if everything's set up ok?
