Symptoms

The game loads and a auto saving page shows up but then the screen remains black. The game cursor is still working.

Additionally, you will find a log with dotnet40 trick installed. It's unclear whether it needs dotnet 4.0 or not but the log spew something about it, so I gave it a try. Waiting few minutes after no activity did output more in the log. Might be interesting, might not.

Installing MF libraries does help where audio is working and it displays a loading screen and so on but it gets stuck further down the road.

Reproduction

1. Run the game.

Start by reviewing the attached steam-914110.001.log, steam-914110.wined3d.log, steam-914110.dotnet40.log, and steam-914110.mf.log alongside the Proton 4.11-11 and system information. Reproduce the game with the stated launch conditions and compare the black-screen behavior with the reported .NET and MF library tests; done means identifying a reproducible compatibility cause or confirming progress beyond the loading screen.
