Unable to get tutorial videos and cutscenes to show in Nioh 3
I am using Omarchy (Arch), with a Ryzen 7 3700X, an RX 7700XT, and the game is on an SSD. I am playing on Steam, using GE-Proton10-29. The game works fine, and the performance is decent as well, but I cannot get videos of any kind to play. The regular cutscenes have audio, but show just a black screen. Same with the tutorial and skill menu videos. The video box there also just shows a black screen.
I have tried a couple different versions of Proton and that didn't work. I used Protontricks to install MIcrosoft/Windows Media Foundation, along with Quartz, and that didn't do anything either. I don't think I can play the game like this. I need to be able to fix this, or I'm gonna have to request a refund for now.

Trying to install a game with Lutris but keep getting a low disk space error?
Hey folks, I'm trying to install a repack and the installer is telling me I don't have enough disk space. Which, I definitely do, according to the system monitor, I should have around 490 gb available. I am using the default /games folder that lutris has installed all my games to so far.
I have tried using different wine versions in the runner options as well as installing newer versions than the default with ProtonUp-qt.
It's worth noting that I'm still pretty new when it comes to using Lutris as well as Linux in general. So, I might just be doing something wrong on a very basic level that I just haven't learned yet.
If anybody else has run into a similar issue, any help would be appreciated.

Need help with steam deck
Okay so I had gotten a dock for my steam deck a few weeks ago and after I was done testing it and had disconnecting it from the dock, waking up the deck caused this EXTREMELY loud sound to happen, almost like a really bad audio feedback loop that wouldn't stop until I restarted it. I'm looking for a way to avoid it from happening again (And before anyone asks yes I tried asking on the steam deck subreddit first and got no answers at all)

Mangohud with Gamescope in Heroic flatpak problems? Not quite but still sketchy
Basically the option --mangoapp for Gamescope doesn't work or launches outside the game window but adding MANGOHUD=1 to the environment variables displays Mangohud over Gamescope correctly.
Supposedly the Mangohud environment variable doesn't work properly and it's no longer supported but it works better than --mangoapp in my case for some reason?

Controller issues
I was hoping someone here had some experience with the PDP Vitrix Pro BFG (Playstation) controller on Linux?
No issues getting it going in wired mode, but since it is wireless I definitely want to be able to use it that way. Any recommendations?
Using 'Linux 6.18.8-3-cachyos'
Edit: As a note it works fine on the Steamdeck running steamos

Are there any ways to improve my performance without using Xanmod or Liquorix?
I've just noticed some frame drops occasionally while gaming and everything I've seen during my searching says that I should install one of these options. I'm using linux mint (cinnamon). I'm just not super comfortable turning off my secure boot. I am new to Linux, it's why I chose Mint.

I AM NOT A GAMER
Ok...I play games, but nothing fancy or frequent. I just play once in a while.
Right now I am Fedora power user but I am wondering if using a distro more focused on gaming should give me better performance?
I was thinking in installing Nobara and try it like dual boot, what do you think?

Fixing Full Screen Problem for Fallout 3 on Heroic Launcher, Ubuntu Cinnamon Linux
Full Screen won't work for Fallout 3
Problem DescriptionFallout 3 would either only show the launcher, or would get past the launcher and the window would disappear. I could see the window's button in the panel, and I could hear the music, so I knew it was running, but when I switched to the window I couldn't see the graphics at all.

Fallout 3 GOTY GOG version, modded I had a Fallout 3 folder from Windows, Already moddedI had modded it with Nexus mods (Vortex app)
fose_launcher is required for certain scripts- Install dependencies via winetricks:
- vcrun2015 or vcrun2022 (Visual C++ Redistributable)

- dxvk

- Settings > Advanced > Select an alternative EXE to run

geometry dash thinks it plays at 144fps but its stuck at 60
I hope this is the right subreddit to ask this.
First thing, I will mention that I am new to linux and don't know that much yet so any help or explaining is welcome.
After switching to linux mint, geometry dash seems to be stuck on 60fps despite the fps count showing 144fps. I assume it had something to do with the second monitor's refresh rate, but disconnecting it only made it worse. The game audio became really disturbed and slowed down, unsynced with the game, and not even fixing the issue.
Not sure if this was the right move, but switching to wayland experimental only made the fps lower, though this time the fps counter seemed to work properly.
I already tried all the in-game options and different versions of proton, but nothing works. If that changes anything, I usually play with geode which is now broken after the latest update.
Other things I tried: -Checking if the main monitor was set as primary -Reinstalling the game -Changing monitors resolution(?)
Some advice would be appreciated
