Yup. I usually search fedora when I'm looking stuff up. Usually, that helps but only so much.
I was installing mullvad. I didn't see it listed in any store repo I had so I used cli. It's not hard to do, but it was annoying getting the syntax correct because the instructions were for fedora but they didn't completely translate to bazzite. Probably because bazzite is half locked down or something.
Games causing me issues were Elden Ring, Resident evil 4 Remake, and Black Mesa (I thought this would work right out the box, but it didn't). They would usually launch then just close immediately. Eventually, I got the right Proton version that seems to work, but then I had issues downloading my cloud saves.
I see a lot of people are still giving me the "it just works out the box" talk, so idk. Maybe I shouldn't have reformatted my ntfs drive and just got a new one, but I didn't want to give up a 1tb ssd for no reason.
Eeeeh. I'm glad it's working out of the box for all those people then. But that doesn't really help you out.
Unfortunately I don't own any of these games so I can't test it to see if I could help out. Bizarre that you're running into issues considering the games I checked are steam deck verified. Black Mesa people mention using the proton rather than the native ( Linux ) version.
If mullvad is wireguard based you can always import the wireguard config in your network manager and connect that way. It's what I did for my VPN. Downside is that you won't be able to use any features the app would offer you ( besides the VPN connection ).
Sorry I can't be of more help. :(
