Game install stuck at "Performing first time setup... - (step 1 of 5)"
A PES 2021 Settings screen shortly appears in the beginning of the process, but quickly closes down for nothing other than the "Performing first time setup" screen to appear ever again.
Got the game to install but it launches with a black screen

https://www.protondb.com/app/1259970#lEYuIgcBpj Txema posted a report in which he used Protontricks to supposedly launch the game. In his protontricks setup that he shared however, he used PES 2020's ID, not PES 2021's, so he might've just mistakenly posted the report to the wrong game. With that being said, I tried the configuration with the only difference being changing the game ID. The game successfully goes through the install, and initial install process, brings up the settings menu upon first run, albeit a clunky version of it, and later launches but with a black screen that upon closing refuses to respond.
Haven't tested online, but if you're a master league / become a legend player it appears to work without issues.

If you get a protonfixes screen upon launch just wait it out and it should launch. Thanks to kamugekomen (https://www.protondb.com/app/1259970#TBzgUqhp_G) for providing this solution.
