The "Processing Shaders" step happens every time I launch the game, and takes several minutes every time. This is unusual compared to almost every other game running on Proton. Is there a reason this game refuses to save the output of shader compilation to disk?

EDIT: Turns out, the game just updates like 15 times a day, and after every update it requires a new shader compilation. Annoying, but I get it.

I'm facing an issue where some arbitrary action in-game kills my frames and I have to restart the game. It's pretty hard to reproduce because I have no idea of the conditions, but any game that lasts long enough has it. Mostly happens during some big fight
