Most games not launching through Steam

Hey! I just installed Bazzite on my main desktop. The experience has been overall great, but I'm having some issues with getting my steam library to run. Most games are refusing to even launch, regardless of the proton version used with them, including various Proton-GE versions. The games that I've tried thus far are as follows: CS2: Working Borderlands 2: Launches and will play the intro video, but everything else is black The Henry Stickmin Collection: No launch Deltarune: No launch Dyson Sphere Program: No launch Satisfactory: No launch Kernel: 6.15.6-105.bazzite.fc42.x86_64 CPU: Ryzen 5800X3D GPU: Radeon RX 9070 XT KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.3
Solution:
You going to have to make sure all of your run times are also on the BTRFS drive

Yes it is a problem You need some workarounds to use ntfs for games or move your games to a linux fs

Not supported, if you use this bazzite devs will not give you any help

Thanks! Moved Rivals to the home drive running BTRFS, still nothing. As far as I'm aware, it should run fine on Proton.

Does it throw an error or just nothing? If there is nothing, unmount ntfs drive then create a proton log
