Wine 11 rewrites how Linux runs Windows games at the kernel level, and the speed gains are massive - Lemmy.World

I just installed wine and launched Noita (a very cpu intensive game) with it, and the stuttering I’ve been experiencing since switching to linux has vanished. The game has never run smoother. Cant wait for proton to get up to date.
Noita has been my favorite game of all time for over 500 hours now.
700 hours and it’s still kicking my ass.
Its the one and only flatscreen game that I’ve actually bothered with since VR came along. >500 hours and no wins yet!
I got 1 win in my stats, and the thousands of times I died because I was trying to explore the map after the boss.
