Which game are you trying to play?

I'm also having the same issue with every game I tired, namely Beat Saber, Pistol Whip and I Expect You To Die 2. I didn't try with GE.

I'm not sure about other games, but to play 'Beat Saber' you need to downgrade it. To do this, right-click on the game in your library, go to 'Properties,' then click on the 'Betas' tab. From there, select the 'legacy_unity_...' from the drop-down menu.

@Dreaming-Codes I know, I've been using the legacy branch since months. Thanks though :)
I'm having this issue on the legacy branch.
