complete lack of texture make it completely unplayable.
every texture in game are completely black making the game unplayable so far.
controller input don't seems to work right now, but then again even windows users seems to have some issues with it so may be unrelated to proton.
open world seems to have some performance issue, but even windows user have this issue so far.
didn't try coop yet but messaging and blood stain mechanic seems to work just fine.
For multiplayer to run, you need to use the beta version "bleeding-edge" of proton experimental to make it work. You can however run the game in offline mode without the need of proton experimental by renaming the game file "eldenring.exe" by "start_protected_game.exe", backing up those file is recommended however if you do that.
the game is working fine under proton experimental right now, didn't try online too much yet. Story, training, mission mode is working.
The only thing that didn't work was the move preview and the background in the character select screen, however it might work with mf-install but didn't try it yet.

If you have data from the first GBVS you need a little thinkering to be able to transfer it, I personnaly copied the folder RED and GBVS from the GBVS prefix:
SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/1090630/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/
into the GBVSR prefix:
SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/2157560/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/
after that you should be able to get your data enjoy.
the only issues, beside data transfer, are the choppiness when doing some move the first time running the game, then it stabilise and doesn't occur after and the that the video of the movelist aren't playing. In other word no big deal.
will get stuck at the opening movie, need to use the following launch option to skip it

most of the single player content work flawless. Mode that require online simply don't work, that include shadow lord mode.
Online simply doesn't work
Controller detection work without issue.
after playing a while the camera movement will stutter.
