This game runs and play flawlessly with default config, the only "issue" is the presence of some chromatic aberration with a green bar at the bottom of the intro videos and prerendered cutscenes like the one at the beginning of a new playthrough. Although this isn't a gamebreaking bug and basically irrelevant for most of the playthrough, out of curiosity I tried switching to the latest version of Proton GE and this last issue is now completely resoled. As to why this game is better here, this game runs smoother and faster on Linux, probably thanks to the better CPU utilization, I can even get as up to double the fps in the most cpu demanding areas compared to Windows 10/11 on the same PC. Using DXVK on Windows got me 90% there fps wise but the game still felt less smooth on it compared to Linux, because of some really small microstutters.

I have a 24 core intel cpu and this games doesn't like all those cores. With the tweek above it works flawlessly.
Crashes after the starting cutscenes
The game crashes either on the studio cutscenes or right before it loads the menu. Tried changing versions but it didn't work.

Worked perfectly out of the box. Finished the game after 32 hours, zero issues.
Working perfectly with current default proton
Intro videos have a green bar at the bottom and some light chromatic aberration. Other than that, flawless perfomance with Proton (7.x and 8.x both worked).
Al iniciar el juego se presenta una linea verde en la parte inferior de la pantalla. En el menú principal y en el juego ya no se vuelve a presentar.
El único detalle que percibí es que los disipadores de temperatura de mi equipo de disparan apesar de tener bajos requisitos en el juego.
No siento que deba de calentarse tanto el equipo por la calidad gráfica y estilo de este juego.
Hay otros juegos que he probado mas robustos que se ven mejor y no hacen eso en el PC
I just run proton-experimental on everything (as the "recommended option), no bugs or problems. Only green bar on bottom of intro.
Without changing to Proton-6.21-GE-2 the game is playable, but without the prerendered cut scenes.
Without this specific version of Glorious Eggroll the prerendered cut scence do not work.

Haven't had a chance to play the game much after getting it working. So far the game seems to run similar to Greedfall
Added the following to the launch options for CPU's with more than 8 cores: WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=4:0,1,2,3 %command% https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/656
I switched to a GE Proton version and ran the MF fix on that version. Not sure if updating proton expermental would break the fix. Also needed to add WINE_CPU_TOPOLOGY=4:0,1,2,3 %command% to the launch commands

No issues on gameplay. Works fine out of the box. Only weird thing was a green bar at the bottom of the screen at opening cinematics but nothing else.
Does not run.
I used several proton versions, proton-GE versions, and launch options
Game does not work on systems with a higher number of CPU cores. This is also true on Windows. I've tried the options others have used here, but they do not work for my system.
Played 2 hours and no problems so far
Game briefly flashes a black screen before crashing.
I also tried Proton Expermental with the same result. However, the game seems to run fine with Proton-tkg 7.6.r12, installed with ProtonUp-Qt.
Had to set Steam Input to "Forced: Off" for controllers to work
Pre-rendered cut scenes where long time not working. But this seems to be fixed now with Proton 7 and GE Proton7-10. However there is a small green bar at the bottom of the screen when ever a Video plays. Nothing game breakable but a bit distracting.
Proton 6.3-8 works fine
Occasional saccaded game
This game only works with proton version 4-11-13, it also needs the mf-install fix from https://github.com/z0z0z/mf-install but that script won't work on any of the new wine versions, you need to use wine 5.x to run that script or the game simply won't work. So set proton the 4-11-13, launch the game it will fail, make sure you have wine 5.x installed run mf-install script
(Reported experimental version: experimental_5.13)
Fix is included in "Proton Experimental" as of Jan 19, 2021.
Changing active windows will cause temporary performance problems; this fixes itself after a few seconds.
Proton versions 5.13-5 and below will either CTD immediately or fail to open the window altogether. Use a newer version of Proton with the MF fix applied.
MF-install seemed to stop working with current proton.
Get's stuck on a black screen as opposed to CTD seen without install. Seems to be a regression.
Massive performance issues / freezes in the main menu
Game launches after the missing DLL fix, but I am unable to start playing as the game freezes in 15 second intervals in the main menu. It's impossible to navigate the menu during these freezes
Some FPS drops at the very beginning and then a steady 60 FPS with vsync / Quelques ralentissements au début, puis 60 FPS solide avec Vsync.

Independent of VFX settings the fps was caped between 9 - 16 fps.

Install Media Foundation workaround: https://github.com/z0z0z/mf-install Minor issues with textures flickering (specifically some helmets & Scum's head) but otherwise runs smoothly. Tested with mouse & keyboard.

Same as everyone else says, launches and then crashes almost right away.
Nothing works on this title. Not the esync, not the d3d11, and not the wined3d11. :(
Crashes at start
Black screen with custom cursor for few seconds then crashes
Crashes on Launch
Opens a black screen for half a second
