Yes, the 2.11 broke the steam client. But this is already fixed in 2.12.

Hitman: Absolution hangs when I try to do a benchmark.
Fallout 4 freezes after launcher, only black screen.

About Fallout 4, you must take note that even on Windows 7 the game freezes after launcher with a black screen...
I am playing it right now and I have to open the task manager to close the game and load it again...
I think is due to the DRM.

Eh not really... The July 6th update of the Steam Client exposed a pre-existing corner case in the Wine code base...
