Unfortunately it looks washed out and awful.

That tends to happen when HDR is not supported somewhere in the pipeline from the game renderer to the monitor. It’s not a standard Wayland feature, most compositors only have experimental or WIP implementations, and X11 is never getting it. You’ll also have to use the perfect settings to make it look any good.

When I said “primitive”, I really meant “sharpened stick” primitive.

It could also be Flatpak’s sandboxing messing it up, so maybe try running the game through Lutris. The existing installation should work fine.

I don’t use HDR so I’m of limited help there. You’ll have to pass those options using the “Additional Options” field. Run gamescope --help and look for relevant options. Also remember that HDR support on Linux is still primitive.

It’s weird. You have to check the “enable upscaling” box, then set “Game Width” and “Game Height”, but leave “Upscale {Width,Height}” empty.

I know this is fake because he wouldn’t just say he hated it, he’d definitely try to claim it’s some kind of woke democrat psy-op.

You have to install the org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanLayer.gamescope flatpak package. You’ll be given a choice of which version: HGL needs 23.08.

Keep in mind that Flatpak apps are sandboxed and don’t have full access to the system, including other installed applications and libraries.

When I was on Hyprland, I had to start Firefox with XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=kde while having both the KDE and GTK implementations of XDP.
