Shadow of the Tomb Raider crashes with signal 6 at start [SOLVED]

Already posted this on the steam forums, but no luck so far. So maybe I can get some leads here:

When pressing PLAY at the game options window the screen turns black, then the game crashes with a window telling:
Game crashed with signal SIGABRT(6): Program Aborted.
The command line shows me (guess this is the relevant information):

[1203/183156.494407:INFO:CONSOLE(8672)] "Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to the end user's experience.

coredumpctl list gives the following output:

With a quick search I did not find anything about start issues in the linux version.
Sure, I use the native runtime on arch, which is not officially supported.

File cache checked - OK.
Vulcan Version - OK (Vega 64 on AMDGPU driver & Mesa vulkan-radeon)

System:
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.64.0
Qt Version: 5.13.2
Kernel Version: 5.4.1-arch1-1
OS Type: 64-bit
Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 1700X Eight-Core Processor
Memory: 15,6 GiB of RAM

Would be thankful for any hint.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

Ah, yes, I do get locale warnings with some applications. Use a en_US setup but with German regional settings (in Plasma).

[me@archryzen ~]$ locale
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=en_DE.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_DE.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=en_DE.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT=en_DE.UTF-8

Re: Shadow of the Tomb Raider crashes with signal 6 at start [SOLVED]

LC_NUMERIC=en_DE.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_DE.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=en_DE.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=en_DE.UTF-8

/etc/locale.gen doesn't have a en_DE profile, I doubt that exists.
You probably want the  de_DE.UTF-8 profile.

As root uncomment the desired profile in /etc/locale.gen and run locale-gen .
Then correct your /etc/locale.conf , reboot/relogin and check if that works .

NOTE :
The value of LANG becomes the systemwide default profile, you can omit fields that are meant to use that default and only change those that need another profile.

Thanks, setting locale right solved the Problem.
