Hi, I’m running EndeavourOS and I have Life is Strange on Steam, which has a native Linux version.
But it doesn’t load, and I got this message when running steam on the terminal:

/home/vis4valentine/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Life Is Strange/bin/LifeIsStrange: error while loading shared libraries: libcef.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The lib files that it says are missing, are in the game folder, in a subfolder called lib/x86_64/
I don’t know what can I do.
The is a script called LifeisStrange.sh tho. If that might be useful.
I’m not sure how much influence you can really have there. Steam is supposed to have every dependency sorted out for you. A native linux game should have a fixed environment, it runs in a bit of a canned distro such as “Scout” (Debian 16.04 iirc).
If the Linux build is broken, you’re usually best off to change it to run Proton.
