Wayland Breaking Games

When I try to open any game that locks the mouse, I can't move the camera while pressing WASD. I've looked it up and it says I have to go from wayland to x11, but x11 is deprecated. How do I fix or change this?

Which game? I've had no problems but it's going to depend on the keyboard/mouse/game/etc. and whether anything else is installed on top of a base system

So far, I've tried half life and goofy gorrilas, they both have the same problem. It also does it not when in a game too

Yes, a lenovo t490s, when I do "echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE" it says wayland. I look it up and thays what everyone else says whats causing it. Okay, its fixed, my friend used copilot I was trying to use x11 but its deprecated.
