 The game not starting problems seem to be with the EA/Origin launcher. Try different version of Proton if you are having problems -- I got mine to work with Proton 5.13-6. If different Proton's don't work, try moving the game. It seems to work better if you install Dead Space 3 in your original library at the time you installed Steam. Also, when I [Alt] + [Tab]bed out of the game, when I tabbed back in the controls and sound didn't work, so I saw on ProtonDB a fellow that suggested that you have to tab out, then in, then out, then back in and then the sound and controls work. This worked for me. The game not starting problems seem to be with the EA/Origin launcher. Try different version of Proton if you are having problems -- I got mine to work with Proton 5.13-6.

 +It took me about 4 hours to get the game working. Trying different versions of Proton and even Gloirous Eggroll. Installing and re-installing. Moving the game from one library to the other. Verifying the files etc. But I am pretty sure the main (game won't start) problem with the game is the EA/Origin Launcher and once you solve that, the game ran great for the most part. However, this is a lot of effort for the typical gamer.
