Issues Launching Games from Steam
When adding a game it and all the proper artwork and info are all added to steam. When I try to launch the game, it does not run at all, but just goes back to the info page on steam launcher.

post a game log from Heroic #:pushpin: Read Me First | Frequently Asked Questions
also indicate whether you changed anything about the shortcut added to Steam
if no game logs were generated, do a dry run in Heroic itself in desktop mode

Game seems to work from heroic in gamemode and desktop mode.
Just not thru steam in either mode.

can you show the launch options in Steam for the shortcut and also the compatibility tab?

steam was trying to force launch thru its proton

that's a user setting. don't set that
disable it, never enable it for Heroic shortcuts
it's also why I asked this
