Here is my log from steam steam-382890.log
Confirming this issue on Ubuntu 18.10, 4.18.0-11-generic kernel
This was reported upstream before Proton was released. If I understand things correctly, the bug is that Wine's GDI+ can't draw without alpha blending, and GdipGraphicsClear() is implemented by drawing a rectangle of the specified color. FFV clears the Graphics objects that it uses to draw text with a 100% transparent color, which makes the "clear" operation do nothing.
I have the same problem.

You need to install gdiplus using protontricks (protontricks 382890 gdiplus) or with winetricks (WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/382890/pfx winetricks gdiplus). It solve the issue on my side.

protontricks is exactly the kind of tool I was hoping for. Makes it much easier to find the prefixes. Thanks for pointing it out @kust2708!

Font is rendered incorrectly
The upstream bug has been marked fixed and the fix is expected to be in Wine 5.4.
This appears to be fixed in Proton 5.13 (presumably by way of Wine 5.0.1).

Yes, I can confirm that the overlapping text issue has been fixed. The game appears to be playable out-of-the-box now.
The text still isn't perfect. It appears to be a little bit pixellated. Here is a screenshot using 5.13:
For reference, this is from one of the official screenshots on the game's page on Steam:
You can see that the text in the official screenshot is blended, while the 5.13 screenshot has jagged edges.
I'm also having trouble with the fonts in this game.
I tried multiple versions of Proton, from 3.x to 6.x, with or without gdiplus and/or corefonts (both installed via protontricks). Every combination landed on the same result: some characters just won't render. Here are some screenshots.
The main menu seems fine, nothing is missing.
Here you can really see that most characters aren't being rendered.
And on this one nothing is being rendered.

Also, following this guide, I changed the fonts that the game apparently uses and pointed them to fonts that I had installed. But this only changed the characters that were rendered, while the others were still missing.
Any ideas what might be going on? Am I missing some dependencies/fonts on my system? I tried installing and uninstalling some fonts, to no success. Thanks!
I can confirm the unreadable text.
This must be a new issue.
In my earlier post on 29 Nov 2020, I posted a few screenshots and the text was working. Testing now in that same scene the text is missing.
Even going back to Proton 5.13, which I was using in my previous post, still has the issue. Although, 5.13 seems to show more text for the in-game dialog than Proton 6.3. But in both, the menu text is almost entirely missing.
Could something in newer version of Mesa be causing this?
Could something in newer version of Mesa be causing this?
It is possible. The text isn't rendered properly on my Arch install with mesa 21.1.0-1 but I installed the game on Linux Mint, which has mesa 20, and the text is displayed correctly with Proton 6.3 and Proton 5.13, just like in the pictures you uploaded last year.
I can confirm the issue with default Proton compatibility install. Even the title screen has blank spaces instead of text for this install.

I'm on Linux Mint, but I am using the kisak-mesa PPA, so I'm on mesa 21.1.1.
I've been using that PPA for a while, so last year when I uploaded the screenshots I probably was probably on mesa 20.
This issue has been fixed in Mesa in this Commit 9b8bc712 Link to the bug report in Mesa as well: Final Fantasy V (Old version): Random text characters are not displayed
With the update to the kisak-mesa PPA today to Mesa 21.3.0 the bug fix is in and the game works properly again.
Fonts in the game are just a mess and unreadable. Maybe some core fonts are missing?
Game seems to run fine otherwise
