I played it a couple of years ago before xen was available. Not sure whether I should start from the beginning or skip straight to xen. Has a lot changed since then besides xen?

Games -> Add non-Steam game to my library

Quoting: GuestI'm not the most clued up person with container tech, and flatpaks, etc, but:
Really glad Valve is continuing to research ways of keeping games running, and giving some kind of interface stability. Just would prefer if there was something a little more generic for GNU/Linux desktop, so that games outside of Steam's environment could benefit.

Gotta admit I played this quite a lot today and yesterday, but it wasn't really because the Coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan, it was because the game was on sale and I finally decided to give it a try ^_^

Life is Strange 2 releases for Linux on December 19

I've not played it myself but I followed a let's play on YouTube and I was quite impressed with the last episode. Wasn't sure how they were going to wrap it up in a compelling way, but they did it. And that cameo!
Nice to know I'll get to play it myself so soon. Been patiently waiting for Feral rather than diving in using Proton.

Quoting: Sojiro84Quicker then expected! I already finished it just last week with Proton though.
Was not as good as Life is Strange, and the story was a bit weak and a lot of stereotypes everywhere, but the ending scene was worth it though.

D3D10/11 to Vulkan translation layer DXVK 1.4.6 released

Thanks! I tried reconfiguring locales and added en_US.UTF-8 which got rid of the warning at the end of the CLI output. Sadly ETS2 is still not starting though.

Quoting: tuubiQuoting: ShmerlI remember seeing reports, that some games were broken due to some locales using , instead of . for floating point notation.My (Finnish) locale does that too, but it works for me.
Quoting: BrisseInteresting! Debian and Swedish is correct. At first glance, 'LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 %command%' didn't do anything but I will investigate further tomorrow.Seeing as the game fails to set locale en_US.UTF-8, you could check if it's installed, and generate it if necessary. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales" should do the trick.

It's probably an issue affecting only certain distributions. I had issues before as well when the game could not find libsteam_api.so (...)
...and that's why some developers choose to not support Linux. The way you put it, it seemed their failure. In my opinion, no developer should have to support all Linux distributions and variations. Yours is not in the steam "supported" list for the game, is it?
Brisse's profile suggests that they're running Debian, while you and Tuubi are Ubuntu/Mint. And yeah, for games, Steam are making assumptions based on the Steam runtime / Ubuntu targets. Base Debian might be missing something here.
But tbh, I think it's probably more likely a locale issue in this case! I think Brisse is Swedish and the whitespaces are probably an international character set difference. I suspect that this might be fixed by passing theLC_ALL=C.UTF-8 %command%
or something similar on start up.

I had issues before as well when the game could not find libsteam_api.so despite it being bundled by the game in the same folder as the binary, but I copied it into my system lib's which worked around the issue. This time it's something else though.
I've noticed there are whitespaces in the game folder and the CLI output when libsteam_api.so was "missing" was cutting off after the first whitespace for some reason.
