Thanks!
Proton is just a tool for Linux users to be able to run Windows software on Linux and ProtonDB is simply a database where people report whether the software runs with Proton, what versions and on what systems they tested, and what workarounds were needed if at all to run the software. This is ProtonDB's page on SH3: https://www.protondb.com/app/15210

The game itself is from Steam.

Ok, I don't know why, but I tried again with the cfg file in Documents, and now it works...? I don't think I did anything differently. That's weird. It should be noted for those that have the same problem, it seems Steam doesn't restore the main.cfg file under Documents (because it's supposed to be your personal settings), so if it gets corrupted you must edit it or overwrite it with a copy that works yourself because Steam won't do it for you.

Code:

[VIDEO]

Now it doesn't get stuck on pause at the beginning of the game.
Thanks!
