This does also happen for Assassin's Creed Brotherhood (48190). The same tricks (hide mac dlc) are needed to launch the game, when in game and the steam overlay should be loaded, steam crashes. A crash dump was uploaded: CrashID=bp-e1e39abb-fc8a-41c5-876f-21db02210920
Disabling the steam overlay, keeps the steam client running.
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
When launching Assassin's Creed 2 (33230) via Proton, Steam crashes as soon as the game starts in fullscreen and the steam overlay appears (after uplay finishes initializing). The game itself keeps running just fine and is perfectly playable. I think this is because Steam tries to fetch the CD Keys an fails doing so.
In order to get AC2 running with Proton some tinkering is necessary, as described in the steps below. (See https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/190#issuecomment-734984986) This is due to issues with a Mac only DLC and different keys for the game on windows and mac. This is handled via the DLCs and Steam installs all DLCs in Linux.
Steps for reproducing this issue:
$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Steam/appcache/appinfo.vdf
to$HOME/.local/share/Steam/appcache/appinfo.vdf
Crash IDs: CrashID=bp-edb01180-9442-4042-a5dc-7e19e2201128 CrashID=bp-93e1e572-e9fa-4042-9b54-46e2e2201128 CrashID=bp-67177472-2700-4ba4-8a1a-b819c2201128 Those should all have the same reason
Workaround: Disable Steam Overlay for this Game. Steam keeps running and counting your playtime.
Edit: Add link to SteamEdit Edit2: Add symlink before running SteamEdit through wine
