Describe the bug
First of all thank you so much for making this possible. This program definitely has come a long way. The first time I used it was around 2024 and it wasn't even capable of running a simple app.
The issue
For some reason Clash Royale is super laggy. I can scroll through the menus with 60fps. 3D animations are also smooth but loading new menus and deploying troops on the arena, explosions, etc lags the game for almost a second making the gameplay so frustrating. note that Clash Royale has an x86 version.
My system is quite old but on the same machine Bluestacks(virtual machine based) can run this game with no issues whatsoever.
