the launcher
DESCRIPTION
While the Guild Wars 2 launcher is active, the frame rate drops quite a bit.
Most noticeably mouse movements become choppy. As soon as the launcher closes,
either by exiting or by starting the actual game, the frame rate is back to
normal.
Only happens with Wayland. x11 remains butter smooth.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. Add Guild Wars 2 to your Steam account and install it. The free part is
enough.
1. Launch via Steam
2. Move the mouse around while the launcher is active.
OBSERVED RESULT
Mouse movements are choppy
EXPECTED RESULT
Mouse movements remain smooth
