Description

As stated in the title the game does not open. Steam states it's running for a second or two and then closes.

Here's the log:
steam-286140.log

Here's my system info: https://gist.github.com/Dazarlin/1fe5b3d929f71f1f3f598c5b99d0c262

Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked steam-286140.log and the system information gist, then investigate why Eidolon launches briefly and exits under Proton. Reproduce the launch failure and identify a confirmed cause; done means the game opens successfully or the issue has a documented, actionable diagnosis.
