Gameplay experiences significant slowdowns, and crashing will occur if not careful during cinematics.
Game experiences significant slowdown with average enemy counts on screen
Game is guaranteed to crash if you attempt to skip/button press during intro splash screens, or cinematics.
Unless you are willing to put up with a relatively unpleasant experience, you will not enjoy this.
As long as you do not try to skip the splash screens, the game runs fine. Resist the urge to button mash on startup.

FMVs crash the game and have to be disabled to make it playable
The other solutions to get this game working are inconsistent at best. The provided launch arguments let you run this game on modern proton versions without the crashes caused by the intro videos, and without the inconsistency associated with using older proton versions. You only miss out on some logos, the intro, and the credits. There are no other cutscenes.
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winegstreamer=d" %command%
The few FMVs (Opening, Ending, and two boot screen logos) cause the game to crash without the provided launch options, and are completely broken (but don't crash) with the launch options.
This game has been a problem for a long time now, and the prior "solutions" have been inconsistent at best. I narrowed down the error to winegstreamer, and by disabling it the game becomes stable at the cost of the FMVs, which aren't really important anyway.
Game freezes on the IF boot video. Changing to the proton version listed will boot, freeze on the IF screen or willl be completely black but if you press A a few times it fixes the problem and the game works fine after
Proton versions past 5.0-10 will fail to load and Neptunia U in general will freeze during the IF intro video. Its fine if you use 5.0-10 and skip the intro videos before they get a chance to play through
It was fine, if your settings was set to gamepad on Windows. However, the moment you try to set it on gamepad on linux. It just won't work.

Iffy and intro video not playing
Proton 5.0.10 worked great. except for intro video not playing and the game would not let me switched to gamepad.
if you let it load fully, it will hang in the ideal factory screen. need to press acton button a few times to skip intro screans. once you skip and reach the start menu screan, games runs normaly. sometimes screen just goes black, probably trying to play a video, just press action to skip and get back to game.
needs to use older version of proton. also, if you plan to use and install on a microsd card, use a good one. the cheap ones, even if you get them to work and get the game installed, will not let the game load.
Heavy fps drops, no intro, crashes, instability. This game has bad compatibility overall and would not recommend playing this game on linux.
Fps dropping significantly when many enemies are on screen.
Black screen on intro, intro video not playing. Need to press A multiple times to get the game boot. And also running latest proton versions completely makes the game stuck at startup and then crash afterwards.
Not really worth to play this on linux. But progress is progress. If the movie intro can be played and crashes will be fixed alongside performance issues. This game could be viable on Linux.
inital screen and intro wont show but skipable otherwise works great
Need to use a previous version of proton to be able to get past the videos at the start. Video works in Proton Experimental but can't proceed past it. Tried with GE Proton and video causing the start up issue still doesn't play.
Lowered TDP to 4W
Game Goes black after antipiracy disclaimer trying to play intro. Just skip it by Pressing A few times and Once after it becomes black again to get to the main menu
Same as everyone else - copyright info, and then black screen.
Switching to GE, experimental, etc. all didn't fix it or made it instantly crash
Save often. Needs more testing for potential freeze cases.
Opening movie does not play (black screen) but can be skipped with the controls.
Using Ram's AOE skills on Waverunner Coast map might cause the game to freeze. One case was using EFB skill in HDD form which was reproduced 3 times. Seems to be specific to the closed-off version of the map, not the exploration version. Maybe it's a game bug?
Cannot get past black screen that follows the copyright warning when using Proton 6.3-8, 5.13-6 Otherwise, is as reported for 5.0-10.
Unknown(< 1 hour with Proton)The game runs, but the intro is black screen that you skip to get to main menu. No windows media player tweaks in 32bit prefix had changed that. Gameplay works as it should except for its slowdowns when too many monsters. Though I dont notice it with my rig but after a while it slows. Other than that, game runs like I would want it to.

A couple of the screens are black when loading the game, but the game itself works. The game does slow down when monsters spawn though.
The videos at the start don't load but can be skipped. The game looks as it should but the frame rate is really low when enemies are on the screen.
Unknown(an hour with Proton)Common: the videos do not load but can be skipped. i965: great performance (seems better than native) but has tiny graphical bugs: the mini-map blinks rarely and some visual effects play very slowly while paused. Perfectly playable. iris: suffers a very significant performance hit (75% FPS loss) and has the same tiny graphical bugs but very rarely, maybe because FPS is lower. Iris demands more memory bandwidth, which seems to be the cause for this performance difference.

Character is invisible, and sometimes monsters, too. Shadows are still visible though, as is the character's weapon, so the game technically is playable. Great framerate and DualShock 4 support.
Unknown(< 15 minutes with Proton)Character model doesn't show up, extremely low FPS once enemies appear
Unknown(< 15 minutes with Proton)
Game loads and works up until actual gameplay. Models do no load, but the game can actually be played. Framerate is not good, however, once enemies appear.
Won't launch, just showing black window for few seconds and then closing.
UnknownSome Textures Don't Load, FPS extremely low compared to windows (60 locked on Windows, 2-8 on this system, the FPS were the same, windowed or full screen)
UnknownUnknownCharacter models do not load. Issues with steam overlay. Had to kill process manually after quitting game. Otherwise runs OK, controller works as it should and fps is good.
