Wolfenstein: Old Blood in Proton

Once again returning to Castle Wolfenstein... you play as Blazkowicz, a top secret agent and of course, things go wrong. Escape the castle starting with your bare hands and two pieces of broken pipe from your cell. Use stealth kills to sneak your way around the gauntlet of passages throughout the castle mazes.


Using the same engine as New Order, this game is very similar in game-play mechanics, weapons and graphics style. This is a GREAT continuation of the Wolfenstein franchise and extremely satisfying taking out guards, minions and mini bosses of all kinds. Run-and-gun will not always work here! Use cover, lean around corners and make quick weapon choices to save your life.

Old Blood ran perfectly in Proton without any major configurations in Proton. In fact, I was able to record the gameplay while retaining all of the graphics settings on high and it didn't affect my frames per second.

Good going - I pretty much play all games via Steam, in large part because I rarely get time to play games at all, and Steam makes it easy. I'm still playing through The New Order, though can concur that Old Blood works happily, too.

All that being said, Zombie Army Trilogy is funnier!
 
Nice! I don't have those on Steam but I'm not surprised they run really good. Proton is amazing and seems to handle just about anything. The only issues I've had is related to shader processing. Steam will process shaders before the game launches which can take a long time... sometimes 30 min. But other games will stutter in the beginning if you don't process shaders ahead of time. It depends on the game, but the stutter is so painful to deal with and the before game processing is just as painful.
I hope Valve works this out eventually.
