Full Metal Daemon Muramasa (GOG) Won't Load past the Nitro+ Logo

Hopefully I got the tags right, if not, I apologize. I've been messing around with this one for a few days now and I'm at my wits end. I can sometimes get to the next two screens but that's a rarity. I've never been able to get to the main menu and I'm not sure why. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, I've checked the pathing to make sure it's correct, everything "looks right", yet I can't get it to work. If anyone could give me a hand I would greatly appreciate it.

based on a skim of https://www.reddit.com/r/visualnovels/comments/r724ep/guide_how_to_hopefully_run_full_metal_daemon/ it appears you need mf-install and possibly xaudio2.9 I'm going to adapt what I had previously written for KH3, which needed the same fix https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/xlg9yt/kingdom_hearts_3_via_heroic_egs_on_steam_deck/

there is also the suggestion to disable esync and fsync if audio isn't working or is still crashing, install xact with winetricks

So I've done everything that you've both suggested and nothing has worked. The closest I got was the main menu and going through the options before starting the game which lasted 30 seconds before freezing. Everything else has been a variation of getting to various stages of the startup and it freezing.... I'm at a loss here but thanks for trying, I appreciate you guys trying to help me
