Mass Effect Legendary Edition not launching on Steam Deck

I've found 3 threads on EA about Mass Effect not launching on Windows from the last month. I'm afraid I've had the same issue on Steam Deck too :(

Things I've tried:

  1. Verifying the integrity of the game cache
  2. Launching from desktop mode
  3. Uninstalling and reinstalling
  4. Launching after reinstall from desktop mode

 

also I've updated steam, proton and mas effect. Would anyone have any other suggestions on fixes? I've been connected to stable internet every time I've launched it. It will say I'm playing it, then immediately close. The closest I got to anything was after I reinstalled it and launched it from desktop mode where the EA app opened a window which said it was installing. But then of course it didn't launch :(

I'm 100+ hours in and I just want to finish ME3. It's my first play through of the entire series and I just really want to finish it 😭

  • OK OMG ITS WORKING 

    I went into Proton updates and changed it to beta then back to stable and it finally launched 

    Honestly couldn't be happier right now this might be my favourite series ever and I can finally finish it 🙏🏽
