This is a good news, waiting for your benchmark and tests.

GPL is still disabled for DXVK via app profile though.

Mesa also recently received optimizations for Detroit Become Human. Such an awesome game, everyone should give it a go. The cast did an incredible job, the story is amazing and so heavily branchy that you can experience half a dozen playthroughs and will still see something new next time.

Wonder how much AMDVLK has caught up performance-wise with RADV now that there's GPL.

From a quick Google search, doesn't look like Detroit Become Human has any automated/built-in benchmark mode?

GPU-wise it's quite a simple game, it's an interactive visual novel, so not very interesting for benchmarking. I just found it interesting that both drivers received optimizations at around the same time.

Me wondering about driver performance was meant in general, not specific to that game. Regarding specific games, what I'd like to see is Cyberpunk, Control and Spiderman, all three with and without ray-tracing. But no clue about automated benchmarks in those.

It's fantastic to hear that Mesa has received optimizations for Detroit Become Human! It's indeed an amazing game with a captivating story and incredible performances by the cast.
