How to actually get this technical mess of a game running better on linux

It's quite easy actually

just dew it

Step 1: Use proton, not linux beta branch
Step 2: Launch with -force-opengl option
??????
PROFIT

With OpenGL forced, it works better than translating API calls from DX11 to Vulkan
I tried to force this game to use Vulkan too, but it crashes as soon as it needs to render anything (2d menu will work on higher framerate, though)
You could probably find this info on ProtonDB, but I'll leave it here

Yeah, I agree

You know, lutris might also be a good option.
