I had the exact same problem with Ubuntu trying to get steam games to run. Unfortunately I could not resolve it and was advised to move to another distro. I chose Fedora and now everything works perfectly without having to make any adjustments. I know it's not the answer you're looking for, but it is a solution.

I've started to feel dirty clicking on icons like some sort of peasant.
I did, but only by installing another distro (Fedora).
I have the Framework 12th gen DIY edition and I love it. I love not worrying that if I break any part of it, I won't have to throw the whole thing away. I love that it adapts to what I need with the interchangeable expansion cards. I've had it for 6 months now and I still love using it. Definitely recommend.
If someone calls, it's either a scam or someone has died. Either way I ain't answering.
Yeah this is what I ended up doing. Switched to Fedora and everything works perfectly! I've only been using Linux for about 6 months so I'm still getting my feet wet.
Okay I'll try that too! Thanks!
I think this is exactly the issue I'm having. The launcher is failing to launch. How did you get around this and kill the launcher and just start the game?
I'm not sure if mint is completely the same, but on Ubuntu you can easily make a bootable USB of another distro using this method: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu#2-requirements
You'd then back up your data, and restart your computer and then, depending on the computer, it might either start the distro installation or you'll need to go into bios and configure your computer to boot from USB.
It sounds more complicated than it is, but there are lots of online tutorials to show you how to do it. Just make sure to back up your data first just in case.
