Had to add PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 to make it playable. Other than that, the game is working the same as in Windows.
Launch Flags:Use Wine D3D
I had to use PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1, otherwise the game was stuttering so much that it was basically unplayable.

Cyberpunk 2077
Tinker Steps:Custom Proton: GE-Proton9-21, Set launch options
VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr %command%
You rarely can get more "AAA" than Cyberpunk 2077 and it runs smoothly. Even the launcher options are not needed if you don't need ray tracing (the game looks better without ray tracing imo). That means one of the most "AAA" game in the market is running straight out of the box in Linux. Who would have imagined this 10 years ago!

DiRT Rally
Tinker Steps:Switch to experimental
Since this game depends on some old libraries, they are not available in latest Linux systems and custom protons like Proton GE. So I had to choose Proton Experimental and it runs just fine.

Grand Theft Auto V
Tinker Steps:Launcher: Heroic, Switch to experimental, Set launch options, winetricks

I had to install vcrun2019 and ms-fonts for Rockstar Games Launcher to work.
Significant Bugs:Yes
I am not able to change graphics settings from inside the game settings menu. But it is possible to do it from the game's Home screen. Whenever I access the graphics option inside the game, the game crashes.

Grand Theft Auto V
Game is playable using Wine-GE after following wine and graphics driver installation instructions from GE github readme.
Tinker Steps:Launcher: Heroic, Custom Proton: Wine-GE, winetricks
Instability:Occasionally
Sometimes the game freezes and quits automatically. I have tried downgrading Wine-GE version one-by-one to try and fix this issue. So far I have found that Wine-GE-Proton7-32 is working fine.
Significant Bugs:
I can't change graphics settings from in-game. Even accessing the graphics menu will cause the game to crash.
To get the social club sign in work the first time, I had to install vcrun2019 using winetricks. Without this the game won't run.
