Crashes at Press Any Key
Published on Saturday, April 11, 2026 By
After launching, the intro video plays, goes to "Press any key to continue" and then immediately crashes when I press any key.
The game was working fine in Feb, I don't know of anything that has changed system wise since then but here are the specs and things I've tried to resolve (one at a time):
