Before someone ask
For cinematics in Darksiders warmastered edition:
- install proton 4.15-GE
- install winetricks (for me winetricks install also wine and other stuff)
- choose proton 4.15-GE for the game
- install the game o click start
- wait till the magic is done (depends on the speed of your line)
- enjoy

Quoting: 0ttmanHas anyone had success on getting the cinematics in Darksiders Warmastered Edition working with 4.15 GE-2? It's not working for me.
Quoting: grigiNot for me either, All I noticed differently is that it asked to download winemono, but no cinematics to me either?
Eureka, I found the solution sifting through the links ... we need to have wintricks installed for the automagic

Proton 4.15-GE-4 (last release on github) = game playable without videos
tested with steam (runtime) and steam (native), game base and game + open beta, with and without mfplat.dll from windows 7 (only dll not entire workaround)
os Antergos full updated (update come from arch :D )

ask to install wine mono, for one second I saw a windows with protonsomething before game start.

Game is playable but without cinematics.

Proton 4.2-9 = playable without cinematics
Proton 4.2-9 + workaround = playable with cinematics
Proton 4.11-3 = game crash
Proton 4.15-GE-2 = playable without cinematics
Proton 4.15-GE-2 + workaround = not tested

Questions:
- this version of proton do the work automagically or manual intervention is still needed?
- we need some "external" package installed? (like winetricks/protontricks, wine...)?
- how to aid?

Quoting: GloriousEggrollI've released a hotfix for this where media foundation wasnt installing properly and was hanging protonfixes. After the hotfix I tested Darksiders Warmastered Edition and the videos played correctly:

I need some files installed in my sytem? (an old antergos installation)
Can I have a step by step guide for dummies for double check?
like:
- untar the file in directory
- open steam
- force proton version for darksiders
- install darksiders
- launch darksiders
- enjoy

Quoting: johndoe
Quoting: 0ttmanIts plays great! 120-140 FPS
This game works for quite some time now.

What Torqachu surely meant is if the CINEMATICS are playing? Without them this game is pretty useless. You miss the whole story.

I've tested this too and NO, does not work for ME > still no cinematics:(
Exactly.
Unfortunately for me the game does not start with 4.15-GE (try standard, open beta, disable d9vk in launch option), crash with proton 4.11.3 and start without cinematics with proton 4.2.9. :(
With workaround cinematics work on 4.2.9.
