Hitman 2016 has a native linux version which is broken. My experience was exactly like your screenshots. Try the windows version instead.
I think Stardew and Rimworld are the only games i've played where the native linux versions werent completely fucked up and broken in some way.
So I pretty much always recommend playing the windows version via proton.
My stardew gets a weird ripple across it when the background moves. General comments online was to uncheck the vsync in settings. That didn't help. Now I just try to ignore it 🤷♀️
Good to know, I appreciate hearing that. I’ll definitely try that the next time I’m on my computer again.
Lets us know afterwards, im curious too
