I'm about to just run a Windows VM, why does linux suck so much.

Use Lutris. Install game. Run crack exe in prefix.

If you really need the Steam version, run the crack exe using the launch options.

I downloaded a "pre-installed" version from one of the sites on the megathread here, then I added each of the _redist ".exe"s to lutris, intalled all of them except the dxwebinstaller that didn't work, tried to run the game on lutris using Proton Experimental again and it failed.

Honestly fuck microsoft too for creating the windows monopoly.

Steam deck problems are not pc user problems.
