From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ok, currently, Timberborn will launch but will hang hard after a short time. I used the wrong engine (?) so I will try "Experimental" and report back.
Even with experimental it hangs...

Try any of the launch commands there? Pretty simple, usually just have to copy/paste.
I have Timberborn, btw, and it runs fine out of the box for me on Bazzite. Though I do have AMD. Though I don't think Intel CPU should matter... Nvidia GPU, maybe. But Intel shouldn't cause any issues with gaming.
Maybe try ge-proton. This is a slightly modified version by some dude named "GloriousEggroll" who basically releases modified versions of the newest Proton that are sometimes better with respect to compatibility. It's what I use as my default (though I do have to update it manually. Experimental will update automatically). Discover store has "ProtonUp qt" or something like that, that makes it easy to download and when you do it automatically adds it as an option in the compatibility menu.
