**Platform, device version and operating system:**

Steam on Linux (Ubuntu 20.04)

**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**

Starting the game like I always do. It worked fine for the last 2 years, but now I hangs at the loading screen. The beach ball spins forever.

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**

This began after the 5.2 Update. It’s always happening, I can’t play any more ☹

I"m not alone with this: [https://www.protondb.com/app/329110](https://www.protondb.com/app/329110)
