When placing dxgi.dll and d3d11.dll in the game directory to resolve texture rendering issues, the game crashes immediately on launch. Without these files the game runs but textures are broken. With them, it does not start at all.
Game crashes on startup when DXVK dlls are present.

Wow, so much information.

My crystal ball says you're on Windows, in which case it is expected that some games won't work. Game works fine on Proton and also has a native Vulkan renderer, would recommend just using that.

That said, my crystal ball also says that you're on an old GPU without modern Vulkan support, in which case, yeah, you're screwed.

Assuming it is a iGPU in the CPU then the Windows Intel drivers isn't always the best pairing with dxvk. At least in the past.
Try to update your driver if you haven't already.
