Hello @jn64, with a newer Proton mainline version, please add [`PROTON_LOG=1 %command%`](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton#runtime-config-options) to the game's launch options, get one of those videos to play in game, and attach the generated $HOME/steam-$APPID.log to this issue report as a file. (Proton logs compress well if needed.)

    [code] This is the most I can get as a log output when trying to start the game. It never even brings up a window, just flashes the play button to 'cancel', 'stop', and then back to play. I have tried versions of proton ...
