Symptoms

So far the game is running almost perfectly (I have tested no online functionality). I was tempted to request it be to whitelisted! The only (very minor) issue I've found is that the game doesn't exit, so Steam will say it's still running after exiting from the game. Not a big deal at all, but figured I'd mention it. Other than that, this game is running great. Additionally, Steam input seems to be working as expected as well for the two controllers I've tried.

Game does not support Steam Overlay out of the box and that makes my Dual Shock 4 controller not work. Other NFS titles work properly. Game can't be Alt+F4'd (probably tied to the steam overlay problem). It used to be way worse, where changing any graphical settings made the game crash. Compatibility is better and the game seems to work when playing with Keyboard (+mouse?), but it's missing a few features.
