Yesterday I was trying to install the Ubisoft version of AC Odissey on my PopOS! machine, and I wasn't able to do so because when I try to launch Ubisoft Connect from Lutris, it asks me to do the login and then shows only a black rectangle.

I tried looking online for a solution but as far as I understood it's a problem of the new Ubisoft Connect UI and I wasn't able to find any fix... can someone help?

It really sucks because it prevents me to play some games that are supposed to run on Linux just because at the time I bought them on Ubisoft Connect instead of Steam :/

I think with the Steam version you would have the same problem. A lot (if not all) of my Ubisoft games in Steam launch the Ubi Launcher and then the game itself. It's a cluster fuck honestly. A Ubi game every now and then is one of my very few reasons to dual boot (sadly).

OH I didn't know that ubi games worked that way on Steam, well then I guess this means that AC Odissey (and all other ubi games actually) are broken for everyone playing on linux, steam deck included atm?
