Sorry if this is considered off-topic.
I am using proton-cachyos-9.0-20250102 which has NTSYNC support. With NTSYNC enabled using PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1, I have only softlocked (which recovered) twice over a total of 2 hours of gameplay (not in one session).
With NTSYNC disabled, I am constantly experiencing softlocks and freezes.
I think this suggest NTSYNC solves this game's constant softlock/freeze issue.
System Info and Steam Runtime Diagnostics
Using Arch Linux, NTSYNC is enabled via installing ntsync-dkms
