The game works perfectly fine, as expected, on my specific system only when using the nvidia propriety drivers. This game will not work, despite endless tinkering, using the nouveau drivers. As far as I can see, this isn't an issue commonly shared among people with similar hardware and operating systems, but I hope this report finds its way to someone experiencing the same issue as me. I typically use hyprland but, using nouveau drivers, this game won't even work with gnome on xorg. This game ran fine on this exact system using Windows, so I have no idea what caused this.
