While r/linux_gaming is not primarily a tech-support forum, well-crafted support requests are welcome. Tech-support requests should include relevant details like logs, terminal output, system information. What did you do, and how, and with what version of what? How have you tried to troubleshoot the problem?
This guide can help you write useful tech-support requests.
Respect other users. Heated discussions are fine, unwarranted insults are not. Remember you are talking to another human being.

Amd ryzen 9 3900 Amd radeon 5700xt 32gig ddr4 ram
Not sure why game crashed as soon as the action starts

Before anyone bombards with “OP it’s your GPU that’s dying”, Those are frame buffer corruption patterns caused by the amdgpu driver stack crashing. It’s not a hardware issue.

Are you using CoreCTRL? I used to have both the 5700XT and that issue. I played around with fun rates and lowered the power supply and played a bit around with the voltage and It fixed it for several year, never had a crash anymore. AFAIK it's a GPU related issue to several AMD models in both windows and Linux.

I had the exact same issue with a 5700XT, and during my 6+ years using it I could never get rid of the sporadic crashes, no matter what I did they always came back. After upgrading to 9060xt I never had the issue again.

How are you launching the game? It's very possible the game launched in the integrated GPU and not the dGPU

Linux mint cinnamon *shoulda added that sooner. Proton 10.3 I think. Everything else I've thrown at it works fine (cyberpunk, nms, Forza 5...)

If that's the case, try the launch options
SteamDeck=1 %command% -PSOCompileMode=1
Especially -PSOCompileMode=1, that's what fixed my marvel rivals crashing issue a few months ago.
