Assassin’s Creed IV Black Flag
Seems the publisher launcher can't install
Installs:Yes
Opens:No
I was ultimately unable to play this game with included Proton versions in Steam. Perhaps GE would work, but I couldn't get the launcher to load/install. The game reports installed, but nothing happens after about a minute, and then the play buttoin turns green again indicating the launch failed.

Until the game is not in color-neg mode, the game is much harder to play and unattractive.
Tinker Steps:Launcher: Heroic Games Launcher, Custom Proton: GE-Proton9-9
Graphics:Other
On default Wine in HGL, menu would load, but rendered objects were invisible, as was all game content. Once GE-Proton9-9 was in use, rendered content appeared, but game content was in color-negative mode (blue game is all reds and browns).

Tinker Steps:Changed configuration
Also had to do the same as Siosm suggested for the overall Linux report:
- Launch the game once, you'll get a black screen
- Force close it / it might crash
- Get into Desktop mode and navigate to your Steam library
- Select the game and choose: Manage > Browes local files
- Edit the "options.ini" file under Graphics and set: ''Driver = DirectX"
- Go back into Gaming mode and launch the game
Performance:Significant Performance Problems
- Initial tutorial load was <1FPS
- Waited long enough to hit ESC for menu
- Changed Quality options and click Apply (any Low-Med-High option will do)
- Return to game and no slowdown
Need to update options.ini

The game installed and ran no problem. By default, my Steam install uses GE-Proton9-26, but this version would not show the Xbox sign-in on multiple attempts. I was unable to see it on Hotfix, but on Experimental, the sign-in displayed. Once signed in, I could use any proton, so I switched back to GE, but Steam stock 9-x works, and so does Experiemental and Hotfix.
