I love Pillars of Eternity so I bought it immediately. Unfortunately, even though it has a platinum rating on ProtonDB I can't get it to even run in EndeavorOS.
On another topic, while trying to get the game to launch I went to the Steam community page for Avowed and it was full of incel like posts claiming the game is woke and shit, or that even queer people weren't supporting a woke game. I don't look at community posts very often and was shocked that these kind of people are still around and can be so vocal without pushback.
Hmmm, strange. I guess you could try ProtonUp-Qt and inject GE's newest Proton in and see if that works. Also, there are some games that wouldn't run for me until I installed the Steamworks Common Redistributables from the tools page in my library. Threw me off recently because I swear that the last time I was on Arch those autoinstalled after switching my compatibility over to Proton.
Ignore steam forums. They were always a horrible kid's playground. Since the term woke emerged, it's totally bonkers. They really go nuts these days when you can't choose man/woman but body type 1/body type 2. How could anyone give a damn about such things if the game does not suck? Like in kingdom come 2 where you could do a lot of things that finally lead to one gay scene. And then they complain about that. It's an RPG. Stop doing gay things if you don't like gay 😁
