JoinModern GOG Games crash before Main Title screen when launching
Hi, all, I'm new to using Linux in general and wanted to test gaming a bit, especially with GOG games since I have a good amount there, along with Steam. For some reason I haven't been able to launch modern games at all. I tried Mint and now I'm with Ubuntu with the same issue. I even tested a spare laptop I have and same issues there; the problem seems to be with modern games since I tried Roller Coaster Tycoon and that one ran without any issues at all. I then tried Two Point Hospital and Disco Elysium and both crash just after opening but before getting to the Main Menu (both get to the "Loading..." screen). For both, the log file says that it is an issue with the Haswell Vulkan being incomplete but I tried reinstalling the mesa drivers and i386 architecture but still nothing.
I attached both log file for those games; any help I can get would be appreciated it since I am just going over what I've been able to find online, so far....

Death Stranding Director's Cut stopped working for no apparent reason
Hello,
Yesterday (about 10h ago) DS Directors Cut was running with no issues, but today the first loading and splash screen goes extremely fast and then black screen (can't get to main menu). I didn't update anything from my OS, the only thing I can imagine is that new VKD3D version 2.14.0 (released 3 days ago) broke something, but I don't know how to check yesterday's logs to see if it was already being used. I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 on Wayland because in X11 the game used to show a black screen (and now it doesn't even start). I had always played with Wine-GE-Latest, but I just tried Wine-GE-proton8-14, proton 9 and proton experimental and they all show the same issue. I also tried disabling eSync, fSync and dedicated graphics, to no avail....
Can't launch games
I don't use Heroic Games Launcher particularly often, but it's mostly there to give me a way to play Epic games on Ubuntu. A few weeks ago I added a non-Epic game to Heroic. I've come back to try a new game available Epic offered for free, only to find that not only will this game not launch, but none of the games in the launcher work (including the non-Epic game that was fine previously). Regardless of the game launched or version of wine used I get some variation of the included log:
I have tried at least the following solutions:
- rebooting my computer
- rebooting my computer with system updates...

I've tried logging out and back in and refreshing my library, but i still can't install
Is there a way to make native games work with flatpak heroic
Most native games fail because they can't pull libraries (this issue is non-existent with the appimage)
