ProtonDB if you buy your games on Steam when possible. A game being gold on ProtonDB implies nothing it you buy your games from GOG or Epic. I’ve spent hours on trying to make Cyberpunk run on Linux (Lutris, Bottles, Heroic, staging versions of WINE and proton that I configured manually), but it seems I need to buy the game on Steam if I ever want to play it again.
Exactly the same issue with me, I bought it on Good Old Games when I used to run windows as I love the premise of GOG, a similar ethos to Linux of actually owning software - but steam proton is just infinitely more practical.
For me it just crashes the moment the CD Projekt logo fades out. No amount of command line arguments seem to bypass the crash. Other people online mention the same problem since a certain update, but GOG doesn’t seem to respond to those threads.

Have it on GOG and play via heroic. I get 80+ FPS at high settings @1440p (balanced FSR), AMD R7 5800x, RX 7600XT. This is on Arch.
I had to use winetricks to install some DLLs to the prefix in order for the game to work properly with mods, but beyond that I’ve had no issues.

Have you tried adding it as a non-steam game and telling it to use Proton that way?
there are a few options to make gog/epic games works with heroic, if it doesn’t work out of the box :
I’ve seen that a protondb user posted about cyberpunk 2077 working on heroic launcher. I hope you’ll manage to have it too.
