  • that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

When I press ANY key in my Wootility One keyboard (in default nKRO mode) the game just closes itself. no errors, no crash report, nothing, just game gone.

When I connected another cheap chinese USB keyboard, it worked perfectly. Started asking around in Wootility discord and they suggested the workaround to disable NKRO (which supposedly reverts the input type back to 6KRO) -- the problem was gone and game was playable and didn't close anymore.

Also someone told there that he doesn't have this problem with Wootility keyboard in Windows.
Also I don't have this problem with any other games so far, so don't exactly know what makes this a problem with Crucible.

Reproduction

Find a modern mechanical keyboard with NKRO and try if it works for you.
For me with Wootility One it did not (in NKRO mode, which is default).

Research direction

Start by reproducing Crucible (Steam AppID 1057240) with Proton 5.0-7 and the Wootility One keyboard in default NKRO mode, then compare it with 6KRO mode and another USB keyboard. Investigate the Proton compatibility path involved in keyboard input; done means the game no longer exits when NKRO input is enabled.
