Not all GE-proton versions play the videos correctly and some cause the gamepad to stop working. 8-25 works perfectly.

Fullscreen mode cripples performance. Use windowed for best experience
Played the game in Japanese from start to end. With the launch options and specific GE-proton version, there was no issues playing the game on my steam deck. Intro and ending videos played with audio and controllers were always functional & responsive.
When language is set to anything other than English, movies (like the opening) cannot be played.
atelier sync fix
Game started up fine, currently no issues with opening movie using Proton Experimental (default setting). FPS was around 30, but using the atelier sync fix (https://github.com/doitsujin/atelier-sync-fix, very simple, just drop one file in the game's main directory) boosted it up to the mid 50s - 60. Can boot directly into the game using Valve's launch menu.
On deck, even with https://github.com/doitsujin/atelier-sync-fix, the FPS is only at 20+
no audio in op/ed videos
Play this game on your PC !
VIdeos doesnt work
It works. For performance improvement, use the atelier sync fix
DO NOT USE PROTON_LOG=1 %command% it will cause the game to crash on startup.
Opening movie does not load, game just skips it.
Must force proton version or game crashes when trying to load opening movie.
Videos are missing audio
The game crashes with Proton 7.0-2. Didn't test gameplay itself (probably works considering other reports). I'll give it complete playthrough when audio is working in videos.
Crashes on startup because of video
If this can work pascal card like 1050 then yeah its works for NVIDIA users.
Only one thing that i bothered playing Atelier series on Linux, is that i cant change the resolution. (i dunno how)

Running great and flawlessly
The wmv movie will block with white screen, rename the wmv files inside your Data folder to skip the movie.
Installing a custom Steam Play compatibility tool like Proton GE. Download the release and extract the contents of it into this folder: /.steam/root/compatibilitytools.d/ https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases
Rename all the wmv file inside Data folder. wmv movie will block with white screen when you first start the game.
Run game with D9VK flags Add this : PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% to Proprites->Set Launch options
Work well in kwin x11, not need to switch to wayland
Full screen can work well
Game works now using a fix suggested for other atelier games
create a dxvk.conf
file with d3d9.deferSurfaceCreation = True
and run game with D9VK flags
Decent FPS, tiny window alignment issue.
The actual Window does not align with its window decoration, and it is always on top. Prepare yourself another computer/phone if you want to check wiki while playing
do NOT use fullscreen, you can't see anything.
All tests are done with Gnome wayland Session. No guarantee about the X11 performance.
The Steam play support of this game is weird. When it's first released it's totally playable, although with noticeable low FPS. After a few upgrades (from Linux OS, Steam and the Game itself) it did not work any more.
Although it currently works, I'm not sure how long this will continue.
just use wayland its runs better than windows 10 I literally this a dream I have to pinch myself to see whether or not this real.
so the game only works using an AMD graphics card with the RADV drivers and you need to use wayland then it works. right now i'm still experiencing a bug where only the upper left quarter of the screen is beeing rendered and the rest of the image is frozen but that might be because of the early status of the driver for the AMD RX 5700XT
its playable on wayland however you experience glitches and bugs in game and probably low fps as well. However xorg hates this game for some reason this issues may need to consider with devs or steam proton team as well.
After upgrading the game to latest and the system to Fedora 30, the launch window works but everything else is broken. Not sure which part is the root of the cause. P.S. I'm using flatpak steam
Play ~10 mins till having the first chance to save. Everything works fine including my XB1 controller. No tweaks needed.
Note: The game window is not in the right place but I believe this is due to I'm using Gnome on Wayland instead of conventional Gnome on Xorg. So I mark this game as Platinum instead of Silver.
startup logos are shown and then when the main menu should apear there is a blank white screen but you can hear the sound and you can as it sounds get ingame in the background but the while blank screen won't disappear. using the fake d3d9.dll the game crashes after the logos my guess is that this game like the other dust games also relies on resource sharing which is not really needed in previous titles but causes the crash in this one
