Hey fellow Linux gamer, does the game compile your shaders from scratch every time it starts, or it's just me? Started it 3 times so far, 45 minute compilation each time... Absolute PITA.
Edit: forgot to mention I have the GOG version, you may play in Steam with its fancy shader cache updates...?
I am on steam yes. Good shout about getting it on gog though. I do get a fair chunk of shader pre compilation. But not 45 minutes, maybe like 5? And then there is some once the game has launched in a loading screen as well.
