Same result with proton_5.0-next.

Hello @taisph, looks like this game would benefit from support for Media Foundation maturing.

Ttaisph 2020-07-28 github

The following makes the game work on Ubuntu 20.04.

Run the commands below. Note that path in WINEPREFIX may vary.
<Workaround removed by moderator>
Run the game normally.

Can confirm that it requires Media Foundation.

@taisph, that workaround is legally problematic and has been removed.

the latest custom proton build from @GloriousEggroll gets me to the main menu. however, the controller support in that build is 100% non existent and i find the game very uncomfortable to play with mouse and keyboard.

My game crashes if the mp4 cutscenes (not the in-game cutscenes) play for too long.

Destroy All Humans! launches and works under 7.0-1, but the subtitles in the cut scenes are not wrapping like they should, such that the start and end of text renders offscreen.
