**Problem description**
The game was downloaded from the steam library. When I clicked on the PLAY button, still on steam window, it downloaded some extra content, when finished and was about to start it silently crash and steam's PLAY button reappears.
I've changed the compatibility tools to PROTON 8 and when it finally start I get a Magic Arena splash screen with the following text: "Error updating data: please check your connection and try again".
Key fact:
I've a good WORKING internet connection.
I've already tried changing the DNS and disabling IPv6 (as suggested in other places)
I've already tried changing the compatibility tools (forcing proton 8, etc.)
Here are the logs for both cases (hope I've extracted correctly from the terminal, I'm an IT illiterate) please notify me if I exposed unessential personal info.

Research direction
Start by reviewing log-no-forced-compatibility.txt and log-forced-compatibility-proton-8.txt, then compare the launch behavior with and without Proton 8. The issue does not name source files or tests; completion would require identifying a reproducible cause for the update error and documenting or implementing an actionable fix.
