            Bug ID: 41635
           Summary: The Banner Saga 2 (adobe air) - poor performance on
                    plain Wine, flickering on Wine-staging
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.9.22
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: donanykey at gmail.com
      Distribution: ---

Although from the first glance the Banner Saga 2 (based on the Adobe Air) is
fully functional with plain Wine, the performance is very poor and the
framerate is bad (literally `slide show`).

I wouldn't have fired this bug, if not the following reasons: 

1. The performance on wine-staging is much better, almost close to native, but
there is another problem - picture flickering

2. The first game in series has native linux support, but with known problems
(during battles after some time of playing the framerate drops dramatically and
hardly recovers). Due to the small fraction of linux gamers and, I believe, due
to the porting efforts and problems the developer announced that they have no
plans to support linux in the 2 & 3 games in the foreseeable future. I think it
would be a good opportunity for CodeWeavers to reach those guys and propose
porting services (they are quite opened guys, their CTO shares details over
porting vendor selection, problems and etc - easily googled). One of the major
problems - Adobe stopped support of Air on Linux

Nevertheless, I would be happy to provide any additional info, full log is not
useful I suppose, as soon as game runs without errors and can't say what
patch(s) in wine-staging makes it run faster
