I confirm:

- that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
Symptoms
The game boots up and then immediately crashes, showing the following error message:

This is with the Uplay overlay already disabled.
The game does actually work on my wine-tkg 4.6 setup, although I'm not sure if that's due to wine itself or any native libraries installed through winetricks.
Reproduction
- Start the game, for the first time and let it crash
- Disable the Uplay overlay
- Start the game again, it'll fail with the above error

Compare the failing setup with the reported wine-tkg 4.6 setup and any installed native libraries. Done when the crash is fixed or the compatibility cause is narrowed down with an updated log and reproducible details.
