Description

Using the Steam Deck with PingPlugin enabled (not necessarily open), there is a fairly high chance of FFXIV crashing shortly after the title screen is shown. Removing the plugin seems to have prevented those crashes completely so far, so it's likely that this is the cause.

This has been mentioned before in a [previous issue](https://github.com/goatcorp/Dalamud/issues/1907) in the Dalamud repository as well.

There may also be other, less frequent crashes ingame which have not happened since PingPlugin was disabled, although it's not clear whether PingPlugin is the cause of those.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash on a Steam Deck with PingPlugin enabled, comparing behavior with the plugin removed as described. Review the linked Dalamud issue and use the title-screen launch path as the initial investigation point; done means identifying the plugin-related cause and verifying that the crash no longer occurs.
