Please try running steam like this:
STEAM_RUNTIME=0 steam
And let me know the results.
What graphics hardware do you have, and what drivers are installed?

@scottlu Intel HD :/
When you see that message, press the button to continue, and see if Steam launches for you.
The message shows incorrectly, we are fixing it.
Thanks.
@scottlu here is the output:

What card are you using specifically and what version of the drivers do you have installed?
I updated my Steam Client and now seems to work.
Nothing extracted yet.
I opened using console and this is the output:
