Ah launchers, don't you just love them? A reoccuring nuisance for Steam Deck and desktop Linux gaming is that they can and will break and the latest to break (again) is Battle.net. Here's how you can fix it for now.

I want to throw rocks at all the people that were pissed off that I pointed out that battle.net wasnt installable out of the box atm.

I dunno why people wouldn’t believe that launchers etc can break on Linux through wine/proton etc, this is something that happens somewhat commonly tbh.

People conflate problems with the launcher with problems with Linux. And problems with Linux are attacks on them personally because theyve made Linux their personality.
