Symptoms

The Launcher starts fine, but when i hit Play a messagebox opens with "Failed to initialize renderer". Changing the resolution or enable windowed mode doesn't changes the error. The game was running under Xorg (Awesome vm) fine. Now on Wayland(Sway) the error occurs.

Reproduction

start Skyrim
hit Play in the Launcher
the Messagebox appears, hitting ok closes Skyrim

Hello @RavenOchlich, we're using one issue report per unofficially supported game title, so I've gone ahead and transferred this issue report to #460 (comment).
