Description

After previous success solving my issues with proton, games continue to fail past booting. I have no ideas what could be causing this now, and I do not believe that I have any way to access Proton logs. Linux native games work completely fine, so it must be a proton issue. If anyone has any suggestions for solving this and gaining access to logs, I would gladly take them.
System: Fedora 35
Specs: Radeon RX570, Ryzen 7
