Symptoms

Installs correctly, after initial developer splash screens show instant crash to desktop

Reproduction

1. Download
2. Run
3. Wait for splash screens to finish showing (ie made with fmod, studio logo, etc)
4. ... crash to desktop

As you can see from https://www.protondb.com/app/50650 this is an ongoing but yet unreported issue.

Edit: Uploaded log that was ran with a different version of Proton - uploaded & updated log with proton version info.

Start by reproducing Darksiders II (Steam AppID 50650) with Proton 5.0-9, then inspect the attached steam-50650.log files and compare the Proton 4.11-13 report. Done means the game proceeds past the developer splash screens instead of crashing to the desktop.
