Game bought on Steam blocks with hrtimer_nonesleep comment

Hello guys,
as in the title I bought "This war of mine" from Steam. The first 2/3 days it worked and then, without any change my be or update, it stopped to work.
Both in my desktop and notebook, with Arch, it blocks at the beginning and the process takes 100/106% CPU with the comment "hrtimer_nonesleep" (on system monitor).
Should be something to do?

Thanks for the help.

PS. I tried also to run it via steam-wine, somethines it works but at the beginning it needs to update with a VC Redist package that gives me an error.
It is really frustrating when you buy a game for linux but it is not working.

Does moving/deleting:

~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1
~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1

help? Worked for me with a similar bug.

Have a look at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/St … ime_issues for an explanation and a better way of dealing with it.
