Symptoms

The game fails to start. this has multiple sources

  1. origin fails to start correctly and crashes: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/3937
    ( current workaround is to remove kernel32.dll in the games wineprefix in either system32 or syswow64 - depends on the game)
  2. the game still would crash because of the intro video.
    this can be workarounded by adding "-skipvideos" parameter to the game from within origin:
    see post from above issue 3937 for the workound:
    https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/3937#issuecomment-641121544

with both workarounds you see a loading screen which crashes as well
maybe changing some settings in
.....1238080/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/Criterion Games/Burnout Paradise Remastered/*.ini
could fix that as well
