## Important notes
In order for the game to actually run on Linux via Proton, the [`vm.max_map_count`][vm.max_map_count] kernel parameter ([original definition][definition]) needs to be set, otherwise the game will freeze while loading or after playing for a couple of minutes:
In order for the game to actually run on Linux via Proton, the [`vm.max_map_count`][vm.max_map_count] kernel parameter needs to be increased, because otherwise the game will freeze while loading the main menu or after playing for a couple of minutes. Some custom kernels like TK-Glitch for example already increase this value from its [default value of `64*1024-6`][vm.max_map_count-default] to `512*1024`, but even this won't work reliably. Increasing it to `1024*1024` seems to work.
```sh
​sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=1048576
