The game itself runs fine, it is the launcher that wont start.
Fix should be a low hanging fruit, someone wrote an external launcher that works with proton: https://git.sr.ht/~_dev_fra/hwrc-proton-launcher

Should this and #99 both be open?

@madewokherd, nice find, looks like there's a search index bug in Github which makes #99 not appear in searches. I'm guessing it's related to the user turning into a ghost.

Because we're using one issue report per unofficially supported game title, I've gone ahead and transferred this issue report to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/99#issuecomment-626318519.
