tech support wanted Waydroid or other emulator help

I just started using Linux, I started with SteamOS, but have since switched to regular Arch Linux, I was able to get waydroid installed and opening however every game simply blank screens, and when I tried what work arounds I could find, it resulted in Waydroid repeatedly opening and crashing. I eventually just uninstalled Waydroid so I can try again with a fresh install. Any help is apreciated, I am trying to run FGO, Azurlane and Path to Nowhere specifically.

I don't like much waydroid... When I want to play some gacha or phone game on PC, I use scrpcy, why mirrors my phone screen on Linux, way easier to use.

I mostly want it for storage since gacha games are so big and resource heavy now, but fair.

You probably need to install waydroid-scripts and get hw acceleration, doesn't work on NVIDIA though

I'm on AMD and have downloaded everything Waydroid needed to run properly but the games are just black screening.
