You should checkout ProtonDB whenever you have a problem. Here's a direct link to the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt which is the only listing they have for Witcher 3: https://www.protondb.com/app/292030
It looks like the launcher is the problem, if you go to the game properties menu by selecting the game and pressing the 3 bars button, then under the General tab there's an option called LAUNCH OPTIONS. In the Launch Options box simply add: --launcher-skip
If there's already anything written in the Launch Options box, for example, it might say
gamemoderun %command%or something along those lines, you should probably keep those there and just add--launcher-skipto the end.Thank you. Interestingly the game did start on the second run (after waiting 15 minutes after first start)... The launcher even worked.
On PC it doesn't start, yet. I'm gonna try the things mentioned there
On my steam deck the launcher worked
Awesome!
