Description
I wanted to install Fallout 3: GOTY via EGS. Once I press 'install' the installation does not start, the steam entry gets made, but the game does never install.
Once I tried to do the installation via commandline I think why it is behaving this way. Legendary will ask for which language to download, which I think is causing the issue.
```
[gamer@chimeraos ~]$ legendary install adeae8bbfc94427db57c7dfecce3f1d4

Research direction
Start at the EGS installation entry point that invokes the `legendary install` command and trace how its interactive optional-pack prompt is handled. Reproduce the Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition installation, then verify that the UI completes the installation without waiting for language-pack input.
