Description

This issue isn't targeted around a single game. I'm sure it effects multiple games. It's that classic wine glitch that's now on proton where a fullscreen application doesn't actually capture the mouse so when you move the mouse a tiny bit nomatter the sensitivity you spin around like 8 times.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the fullscreen mouse-capture problem described for Proton and Wine across graphics modes and more than one affected game. Determine whether small mouse movements cause excessive rotation only in fullscreen, then verify that the mouse remains captured and movement behaves normally when the issue is resolved.
