Wont even launch on Arch Linux
It says "running" in steam for a second and stops. I get nothing on the display. System is up to date as od thurs feb 28th. Using extra/nvidia 418.43-3 [installed]. on a new nvidia RTX 2060. I too in my search found it could be mods, I cant go into the game to disable them so i unsubscribed all from the steam civ6 page, and also believe I deleted the content manually. Any ideas, thanks.

RTFM =P

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam/Game-specific_troubleshooting#Civilization_VI

Either run with steam-native, launch option LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 %command%, or env LD_PRELOAD='./libcxxrt.so:/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6'. The latter will disable the Steam overlay.

kidding =p

Yeah the wiki is messed up as usual. wiki.archlinux.org uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate will not be valid until February 28, 2019, 7:07:43 PM GMT-5. The current time is February 28, 2019, 6:55 PM. Error code: MOZILLA_PKIX_ERROR_NOT_YET_VALID_CERTIFICATE

Usually i can click advabced and go anyway but its not letting me.

That aside, I did do some reading elsewhere previously, I should have mentioned that, and I am already using steam native, but its doing the same thing. Thanks

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 %command% adding that to my steam launch worked. Thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate people like you on the interwebs.
