When I click play, it tries to start, but just goes back to the play button.

When I click the Play Now button for my Epic Games games (Bioshock, Dishonored, PC Building 2) it for a short time says Playing (Stop), but soon goes back to the normal Play Now button. I've tried signing out and back in to Epic, and reinstalling the app. I've ran Heroic through terminal, and pointed out when I tried starting the game in my terminal log, and I have the log created by Heroic.

Provide the game log, not the global log. Also don’t use Proton, use Wine GE

I believe at this current moment we can't get past Easy Anti-cheat for Fortnite. The only way to play on linux with with streaming services like Geforce NOW, or Xbox Cloud Gaming.
