Cannot play ES4 Oblivion on GOG

I'm running Heroic Games Launcher on Arch Linux and am trying to play my GOG copy of Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion GOTY via Wine. After hitting Play Now, it says Playing (Stop) for a couple of seconds and then changes back to Play Now. The game never opens. I've tried multiple versions of Wine or Proton.
