Research direction

Start by reproducing the blank launcher with Proton Experimental and inspect steam-1832640.log, which was captured before the workaround. Compare launching the game's documented Win64 executable directly with the default Launcher/Mirror2.ProjectX.Launcher.exe path; done would require resolving the launcher failure rather than bypassing it.
