Still missing executable there...if you had it installed with proton I think that you have to uninstall it and redownload it.
I did so but it did not work. I could get it working by forcing it to use the Steam Linux runtime and then unchecking the box.

How is it? The Windows release had plenty of bugs / issues. Are they finally resolved?

Wow, i have finished this game years ago... on PS2 i think.
That's good news, but i see reviews are not good.
This version seems to be censored... bad.

Its seems that all enemies symbols (german, japanese) are removed and not replaced by anything (swastikas, iron cross, Japanese Imperial symbols)
Animations of burning ennemies are removed too.
No changes in gameplay, but very disappointing (the dev has said it was to not break the law on different countries, but... its not a viable argument, since these symbols are allowed in representation of historical events all over the world).
One country have banned this symbols: Germany, but it's not the case anymore (since 2018) in this context.

Wow, that is so completely unnecessary. This is just me guessing, but they probably didn't want to make and maintain two separate versions of the game - censored and uncensored - so they just made the latter and called it a day.

This is what they have said, but everybody is angry because they could only have one uncensored version without any problem regarding laws...
