So I tried to do this today and the game wouldn’t launch. Logs show that steamapi_init() failed so it looks like it is because of the steam emulator the game uses. I looked around and apparently one could use the WINEDLLOVERRIDES variable to make proton use the dll that the game provided rather than something that Steam has. (Like setting it to steamapi_64=n.) But even that did not work. Have you any experience with this?
I was aware that steam can accept random executable but for some reason I just defaulted to lutris since I was used to that. Thanks.
The barrier is truly tiny. My steam deck is essentially a pirate box.
