Explanation

New issue on linux. Last I was able to play was early on the ptb, but then the ptb got an update and it wouldn't launch. Went back to live and it won't launch either. Gets to the splash screen with trapper and logos, then just closes. Did a system update for all drivers and still no change. ProtonDB has a couple people reporting the same issue on different distros, drivers, and proton versions: https://www.protondb.com/app/381210?device=pc

I'm including a proton log.

Tried:

• Proton Experimental
• Proton Hotfix
• Proton GE 11-7
• Removing all launch commands

Specifications:

• OS: Arch Linux x86_64
• Kernel: Linux 7.2.6-arch2-1
• CPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-12100F (8) @ 4.30 GHz
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070
• Memory: 32 GiB
