dxvk is available through the distro, if you’re on an ubuntu or debian-based distro just run sudo apt install dxvk. vulkan should come pre-installed on any modern distro.
i’d highly recommend using some kind of manager, if you don’t want lutris than use playonlinux which is more minimal. this keeps things organized and lets you use different wine versions and tweaks for each game. for example, some newer games need proton-experimental or an otherwise very recent version to run, but you may not want to replace your system wine with this.
afaik you need dxvk in the actual wine prefix, just having it on your system doesn’t do anything.
I had installed dxvk from AUR and didn’t get why it wasn’t doing anything, turns out the point of having dxvk on your system is for symlinking it into your wine prefixes so you don’t have to get a dxvk installation for each prefix individually.
when I found that out I just removed dxvk package and got installed dxvk directly to the my prefix with winetricks, because I only use two wine prefixes anyway (one for vulkan and another for games that have to use opengl)
