#Overcooked! 2 steam stuck on loading install

Many games that were absolutely broken for me 6 months ago when I decided I was going to switch to linux full-time now work perfectly with newer versions of proton. I'm just super encouraged by the progress that's been made, and I think the future for linux is very exciting. This is just kind of an appreciation post/update to my experience using linux as my primary gaming OS for ~6 months or so. Do you guys know anyway to help me? I really want to play this game.

#Overcooked! 2 steam stuck on loading install

Everything is up to date, I have the nvidia proprietary drivers, this is a fresh arch linux install from about a week ago formatted with xfs on both my ssd and my hdd. I reinstalled visual c++ and installed visual c++ 20 and I still get an error on these versions. Launching this game on some of the other versions of proton or proton ge gives me a visual c++ runtime error on the launcher about how an assertion failed, expression: platformUtilsInitialized. Also, I think its worth to be noted that rendering the actual game gives me 1 fps and it is VERY unplayable.

I have a i5 9600k and a 1660ti and I know theyre more than capable of playing this game well beyond 5 fps because Ive done so before on windows 10. This game is known to not have the best performance but getting it this low makes me think something is wrong. However for me Ive tried every single version I have and I tried proton ge latest. Ive been trying to run a game called Star Wars the Old republic with proton and it really hasnt been the best time, many of the people on protondb say it was a very out of the box experience or they only added a few launch arguments and everything was perfect.
