The install for this isn't the greatest due to issues in the port.
First install into a windows 10 32 bit bottle.
Install .Net 4.0
Install Steam and Install FF XIII-2
Turn off the steam overlay and cloud saves. They will cause crashes if left on with this title.
Turn off CSMT on the bottle. (Helps a bit with frame rate on an m1 air)
Install the player created patch that fixes some bugs from https://github.com/rebtd7/FF13Fix
(Note: to the best of my knowledge this patch isn't violating any kind of drm etc, just fixing issues and should be legally clean but I'm not a lawyer)
Launch steam and then launch the game.
