Symptoms

I was trying to start the game on my Pop_OS computer and the install scripts would initate fine and install everything necessary, however after that, an EAC window popped up which was normal and then a few seconds later, the game's main executable opened and then within a second crashes back to Steam. I have done this multiple times with the same problem.

Reproduction

Review the linked system-information Gist and the compatibility report for AEW: Fight Forever under Proton Experimental, focusing on the EAC window followed by an immediate crash. Reproduce the launch failure on the reported Pop!_OS setup; done means the game starts successfully past the EAC stage or the failure is narrowed to a documented compatibility cause.
