Symptoms

On Native version: game crashes upon launching the game.
On Proton: game runs great and doesn't crash before reaching the title screen. But in game the entire screen is black unless you turn off Post Processing Effects. But turning off PPE makes the lighting nonfunctional.

Reproduction

Launch game. (Get past title screen.)

Having difficulty with this game too. Some of the puzzles act incorrectly and there is a complete softlock early in the game.

Nothing extracted yet.
