Cyberpunk 2077 contains a range of internal benchmarks - not just the basic benchmark found on PC. All of these test scenes are available, meaning we can lit...
IIRC Witcher 2 used eON which is also some sort of translation mechanism. But yeah, native port is not a guarantee of stability. Wine/Proton is a guarantee that you’ll be losing performance on overhead due to those being a reverse engineered reimplementation of Windows libraries. It can be mitigated due to Linux being more performant and/or less bloated with adware. Regardless of all of this, we should be making comparisons to as-is performance because that’s what ultimately matters to end consumer.
To be fair, a lot of the “native” linux version run worse than the proton version does. Just look at Witcher 2.
