New native remaster version is great.
The remaster update in October 2023 brought a new native version for Linux, and it plays really well. Just download and play, nothing to configure.
Plays Well, from 0% to 100%
There was one instance of shadows on a carnival ride acting strange, not sure if due to Proton or just how the game is
Framerate above 60 leads to problems with Robin's controllable devices, limit the framerate to 60 by using V-Sync or otherwise to fix.
After completing 100% of game content, I can say it's pretty much a flawless experience on Linux. Equal or better performance to Windows 10.
Flawless OOTB
Installed, pressed play, loaded an old cloud save from Windows 10, completed the game 100%. I suggest capping the framerate to 60 but it's not absolutely necessary.
Worked perfectly just like on Windows 10
Worked effortlessly, just installed and ran.

Small shadow errors and occasionally facial hair + eyeballs would freeze in place while the rest of the model moved
Played on the dx11_non-rt beta, with DX12 selected in the in-game Rendering API options.
The game itself is playable but I experienced some minor graphical errors. I haven't really bothered trying to fix them besides changing the Proton version and in-game settings.

Pre-rendered cutscenes display incorrectly without using GE-Proton
MANGOHUD=1 %command%
An in-world video was rendering incorrectly, besides that there wasn't anything I noticed.
Fullscreen acted strangely, borderless fullscreen behaved perfectly.
Completed the entire main story and explored all areas. Ran great at 144 FPS with fairly high settings with the lowest FPS being in the 90s.
Using 'mangohud %command%' in the launch options caused infinite loading. I used 'MANGOHUD=1 %command%' and it worked without a hitch.
Trying to load mods that replaced textures + models didn't work but REFramework and script mods did. I couldn't figure out why.

My own shadow was headless and had artifacts, other players' were fine.
Used to play it on Windows 10, plays basically exactly the same with Proton
