steam-246620.log

Game does not run properly in full-screen, issue that was not present in previous version of Proton, AFAIK.

BTW, I should have said it before, but, I am forced to run it with Proton since the native version never worked for me.

Settings related to windowed/full-screen modes are not present in the options menu.

Reproduction
