When using proton greater than 5.13 the game hangs after clicking Play on launcher and must be stopped using the stop button in the steam client.

Game launches with Proton 5.13 (albeit with some in game graphical issues).

@RockafellaJaz Thanks for the report. I've found the cause of the issue and reported it on our internal bug tracker. We will hopefully have a fix for this soon.

Just tested it with Proton: 1657128959 experimental-7.0-20220706. The game now runs with only 3 issues I have noticed.

1. The intro movie does not play.
2. If I turn on advanced lighting everything but the UI/Menus turns black. (might be an NVIDIA issue?)
3. If I try to bring up the Steam Overlay the game freezes with only music playing and must be killed. So I have to disable the overlay otherwise I am unable to remove the 'Game requires a key' message.
