That approach doesn’t work for any game, tho. For example, I can’t get mods working for World of Tanks. If I move the mid files in the directory where they normally would be under Windows, WoT crashes when I start it.
For the method that you’re using, you could enable proton logging and that would let you see the traceback of the crash. It may give you a bit more information about what it was trying to do when it crashed.
