Black screen on startup Ubuntu

I've tried everything 3 times. I reinstalled 3 times, i deleted cache and config more than 3 times. I verified the integrity of the files several times. I updated everything through the konsole. I tried forcing Vulkan, i tried different protons. I restarted my pc several times.

I am about to give up, it's been hours of trying and i have no clue, it has never done this before. it goes to black screen and uses 0 cores, it doesn't do anything it just hangs there in infinity.

I use Steam client, on a RTX 3060. 32Gib ram. 11th gen i5.

Yep, standalone client fixed it. If you are on Linux, download it through Lutris. Be sure to create a PoE account on the website and link your PoE account with your Steam account if you haven't already. Then use your PoE account to login (e-mail and password you used to create the website account)
