It looks like you're missing libva.so.1, so go to your /usr/lib32/ directory and make a symlink to libva.so and call it libva.so.1.

However, this probably won't fix the game. I had to also symlink libvpx.so.1 but after all dependencies were met, GlibC throws an error. I think it was due to the version of GlibC used in the game is very outdated and the systems GlibC no longer uses the same calls, so it bugs out. Similar errors are found in the Life is Strange: Before the Storm Feral Launcher, but that can be patched by compiling a simple file, not sure it's possible for this game.

As far as I know the Linux Native version of Saints Row 2 doesn't work.

Just install the lib32-libnm package. The one Steam is supplying is outdated with the new libgudev 238-1, by installing your own lib32-libnm your system will use that over Steams one and it should launch fine.

A very useful write-up, will definitely be adding these to my repertoire!

I've got all my 200+ games, mostly from Steam, working on Linux and have encountered many of the listed DRM but I mostly solved them using other groups cracks and mainly the Goldberg Emu.

This will certainly help me in the future, especially with some more obscure titles that don't have many pre-cracked files flying around online, many thanks!

If the pirated game you are running uses the Goldberg Emu or a similar variant then they have the capabilities of Achievement unlocks. If you are on windows you can also combine this with Achievement Watcher which can pick up the achievements and even display them as you get them with toast notifications.
