Symptoms

Any source engine game that uses VAC does not allow to join protected servers. The problem doesn't appear while using native build.
Besides that, the fonts are barely visible and somewhat distorted on a 2K screen, changing the resolution does not change anything.

Reproduction

Installing the games and launching them from Steam using Proton 7.0-2 or Experimental(using older versions like 6.3-8, 5.13-6, 5.0-10, 4.11-13, 4.2-9, 3.16-9 yield the same result; that should point to the problem's age and did not appear in recent builds) and joining any VAC-secured server(any official match in L4D2, any server in CSS).
