What works
Installing from Steam, Or Other Directory, and prerequisites.
What does not
Problems installing Game, most likely due to newer DirectX, and missing dependencies from Dot-net 4 and 4.7.1.
I Tested on Wine 3.0rc, but could not get past a repeating black screen. Identical instructions were used so additional testing may reveal a working config.
I also Tested on Wine 2 Staging, with a working 32bit version. Identical instructions were used so additional testing may reveal a working config.
Workarounds
What was not tested
Other Release versions of Wine 3.

Many test results say "See above where to find this", referencing dotNetFx471_Full_x86_x64_Slim.exe. This file can be found here, inside the old directory.
