The game does not open at all with dxvk installed.
When I use apitrace and open the game, I receive this error at launch:

By the way, injecting SpecialK in the game using its DLL (dxgi.dll) works without crashing.

All overlays are off, including Nvidia's GeForce Experience and rivatuner statistics. Steam is closed.
Game is borderless.
"OpenCL, OpenGL & Vulkan Compatibility Pack" is not installed in my system

The game is probably loading d3d11.dll from C:\Windows\System32 and dxgi.dll from the game directory.

Did some poking and that seems to be the case yes.
