helldivers 2 works great for me with nixos. Both native package and flatpak.
I don't play it, but I remember that with each update, it sometimes broke for Linux, and sometimes it would fix the breaks. That was especially true closer to launch, though maybe some of those issues have been ironed out.
Are you using a Nix config you found, or is it something you cobbled together yourself? Gaming on Nix seems like a challenge!
Been using nix to game on for 2 years. My config is a bit out of date, I haven't really taken the time to update and optimize it.
