White Album 2 and various other visual novels don't work with Heroic but works with normal wine.

Hi, so i've been having an issue with Heroic with launching some games, particularly visual novels. To put it simply, they work when I run them normally with wine but not when through Heroic. steps i've tried includes trying different wine versions, including default non GE versions, use proton and steam runtime (which actually works for some games but not for others) and installing various components with winetricks to no avail, i also tried checking prefer system libraries, no luck. the default wine prefix is 100% clean (i haven't installed anything on it yet) and the prefix i use for the game on heroic is also clean. and yes i've tried using the default prefix for heroic to no avail. here's two video demonstration. and a log from a different game, sadly i can't replicate the wa2 one because i'm not on this pc at the time being, will post it later if the log is needed

try disabling the Prefer system libraries and the Use Steam Runtime options

try disabling esync and fsync then, the idea is to remove everything heroic adds to the command if the game works outside heroic
