@56curious, could you please upload the launcher log itself by dragging and dropping into the comment box? Pasting the contents can cause some of the log entries to be missing due to exceeding the character limit. Also try verifying the integrity of the game cache.
Hello 56curious,
sorry about the issue. I'd like to ask if that issue occurs repeatedly or it happened only once?
It kept happening (I tried atleast 4 or 5 times) untill I restarted my entire computer. I've had this issue, or something similar, in the past as well but never thought it would come back again.
EDIT: When ever i'd try to open the game, a see-through window would appear. When Alt-Tabbing to it, it said something on the lines of "Steam play".
Hello, sorry I didn't realise that you responded. As I said, it kept happening and when ai restarted, it disappeared. So no, I can't.
