Resolved via quoted comment below

@libcg Should I edit the original post in this thread?

Running the 396.54 driver made the game work properly. The performance isn't the same as windows (inspect the two attached benchmark xml (renamed to .txt for github) files, both done with exactly the same settings) however I suppose this is to be expected when running via proton. Hopefully the performance can be improved somehow so that it could be playable on linux under proton. (60+fps minimum otherwise playing with a wheel gets odd, though admittedly the benchmark numbers are usually lower than real life, so ill try playing with my wheel later).
