Blue Protocol: Star Resonance - Proton GE 10-18

A new Proton GE update was released that brings in some new fixes from both Valve's Proton and some new fixes in general. A bunch of the components were updated to their latest versions, while FSR4 fixes and wine-wayland patches were brought in from em-10. We also have fixes for Blue Protocol: Star Resonance's videos, Company of Heroes 2 and 3's multiplayer desync, and a change that could make Visual C++ install a newer version instead of an older one, which could cause some issues in games that require an older version.

For those who don't know about Proton GE, how to get it on the Steam Deck, or how to update, check out our Proton GE guide! We go over all of this and explain why having GE is important.
