First and so far only crash happens at 37:41, had to force kill the game process and relaunch. Some weirdness also started happening with Iron Mikes facial textures, not sure if it's related, but once texture issue happens the game can randomly start stuttering like there's a memory leak which only fixes after a relaunch.

*This only happens while recording, the game runs great when OBS isn't recording.* There's some juddering while panning the camera, after ~5 hours I decided to have a play around with things. Turned out it's caused by using OBS window capture to record the game, using screen capture works perfectly for this one.

GOG version of the game using Proton Experimental copied from Steam for use with Wine, tried a few other Proton versions first and Experimental seemed to work the best. Eventually I learned that the stuttering while rotating the camera is caused by OBS. The game itself runs great.

Started uploading at 1440 instead of 1080 to see if that makes playbacks look any better. With 1080 Youtube is using the avc1 codec, while 1440 uses vp09 which is supposed to be higher quality. Not sure whether it's worth the extra time, a 1 hour recording takes 3+ hours to process and upload at 1440 (not counting Youtube's 3-6 hours to process up to HD). The file sizes also jump up from around 9gb to 20gb.

Somewhere between playing a game and getting a video on here the quality takes a dump, seems to look similar to the whole bitrate issue with woodland scenes and twitch.

Currently running using GE-Proton7-36, some initial stuttering when approaching a heavily built up place like one of the main camps for the first time. After the assets have loaded it seems to run fine from then on, even after restarting the game. I don't remember if Win10 had the same issue back when I first played the game on that.

The transparent panel setting I started using seems to be hit and miss with OBS screen record, it's flickering occasionally at the top of the screen. Not something that's visible while playing but the recording is picking it up and flashing the wallpaper.
