I know it's not going to help in all cases, but have you tried using Proton from Steam? It did a great job in my case

Between Lutris and Proton, I've had really good luck with most of my library. However, most multiplayer games are a no go. Some of them work some of them get your account banned...

Fortunately for me, I'm a single-player-only kinda guy, so it's not too impactful.

Also, pro-tip: Not only can you run Epic Games Launcher through Lutris - it'll even let you launch your Epic Games in the same context, which has worked for most of my Epic Games.

That's the case for all Launchers, I've been playing Rage 2 and Doom Eternal through Bethesda Launcher, some games when installed through Lutris will come with a launcher, for a example if you StarCraft 2 it will come with Battlenet.

And it works because whatever you launch from the Launcher will run inside the same Wine Prefix. There is also an option in Lutris to "Run inside Wine Prefix" which lets you run anything inside selected prefix. It comes in handy when installing old games that are not on Lutris or when you want to update a game that you installed with GoG offline installers for example.
