Device Type: Arch Linux Virtual Machine
Wine version: 8.7-1
Note: Treat this as personal curiosity that I have to try this in Linux, or a compatibility report and not an actual bug, just thought I could share my findings with everyone, especially the developers.

The installation .exe file works perfectly, albeit with slight text corruption likely from a missing font. The launcher also works perfectly under Wine, and the game downloads without issue. This is where the good news ends however.
When clicking Play from the launcher, the game starts past the Kuro Game logo and reach the loading screen, and this is where the game gets stuck at with the CPU usage pegged at 100%. I left it for approximately 5 minutes without any progress, and force quit the game.
This is the same result as the Ascension test.

I did not test this outside of a VM, nor with other Wine/Proton versions, will update once I get the chance.

Update: I extracted the log files, which points to the KRSDK.dll file could not be found, however the file is present at the indicated directory, so this points to a possible permission problem or wine problem.
The Ascention log files also point to KRSDK being unable to be located

[PC Client] DLLNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'KRSDK' under Wine

#

I'm not going to test this outside of a VM, but different Wine/Proton versions may provide better luck, will update later

#

wine and wine-staging both did not work, gonna try Proton

try install dotnet via winetricks first, as well as vcrun. I don't know, I installed all the verbs related to them (dotnet462, dotnet48, vcrun2003, ...)

there should be "Initializing game" under the looping circle, if there is none, try installing corefonts (or allfonts if you have time)

#

for your reference, I set up my prefix with this command:

WINEPREFIX=~/Games/PGR winetricks vcrun2003 vcrun2005 vcrun2008 vcrun2010 vcrun2012 vcrun2013 vcrun2015 d3dx10 d3dx9 dotnet462 dotnet472 dotnet48 allfonts

wine --version
wine-8.7 (Staging)

winetricks --version

throw everything at a wall and see what sticks, thanks for that, will see how things turns out

#

I’m guessing dropping Direct X 9 and 10 won’t have much impact as the game runs on 11? Needs more testing though

Even if you can open the game and get into the title screen, the login seems borked as of now

#

also apply to the links at the launcher
