I expected after the installation of Steam and the game to be able to run the game after clicking the Play Button. This didn't happen. Instead the game appears for under 1 second and crashes before starting.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Installing Steam
2. Downloading and Installing Game
3. Hitting Play Button

More Informations:

A heavy problem appears after starting games like Black Mesa, X-Plane 11 or Sven Co-Op. This terminal part is from elementary OS when I was trying to run the game Black Mesa. The game crashes immediately after clicking on play. This bug effects other games too such as X-Plane, Sven Coop. But Counter Strike 1.6 works. Hope my logs can help you guys to fixing this serious problem.

Hello @OrkanSaklan, a common culprit of this issue that the game is loaded with a variant of libstdc++.so.6 that is too old to be used with mesa. It looks like this is the case for Sven Co-op and Black Mesa, which have that library bundled with the game. Please remove that library from the game's folder and re-test.

Game-bundled libraries which cause trouble should be brought to the attention of the individual game devs.
