If anyone happens to be playing on Steam Deck (or any Linux desktop), the launch options are slightly different:
DX11 no launcher: --skip-launcher
Vulkan no launcher: bash -c 'exec "${@/bin/bg3.exe}"' -- %command% --skip-launcher
Though for this particular title, the Vulkan one is really crashy on my system rn, which is ironic since the DX11 shaders are converted to Vulkan on Linux.
On my system dx11 crashes right away, so vk it is..
Larian themselves warn that Vulkan should be the least stable of the two options at the moment. That said, I've heard tons of conflicting reports, so it may be super dependent on specific hardware.
Ironically, with the final (not the pre-purchase) release it's the other way around. Vulcan crashes after the airship cinematic.. (I'm also on Linux)
