A video has appeared on the Deck Wizard YouTube channel demonstrating the noticeably more stable performance of the game — the native version looks better in almost every aspect.
Although even in this version the project does not maintain a stable 60 frames per second, the difference is obvious. Cronos: The New Dawn confidently runs above 30 fps even in complex scenes. In the same location, the Proton version barely reached 30 fps.
Despite the fact that a high frame rate is always a plus, for the survival horror genre, smoothness in the region of 30 fps should be enough, because the basis of the game is built on atmosphere, not dynamics.
