Steam games not launching :(

Fresh install, 3080 and a Ryzen 5 5700. I have steam running in compatibility mode for proton experimental and when trying to launch KCD2. When running steam through terminal I'm seeing this error:
ERROR: ld.so: object '/var/home/Mushdodo/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong. Bit of a newbie, thanks for your help!

NTFS for linux gaming requires workarounds, and to do so will not be provided support here reformat to btrfs
