Consistent Crashing in game

[Mister Awesomesauce]

My game appears to hang with a black screen after about 30 minutes to an hour of game play.


Here's what the log ends with. can't add the whole log however as it's quite large.

Can you confirm whether this is a video driver crash? What GPU are you using?

Based on the output of the log you can see that i'm using an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti.

An investigation is ongoing. I apologize for the late response.

[Mister Awesomesauce]

just checking in. still no response over a month later. Game is unplayable.

Do you recall the specific location at which you are crashing?

[Jacuzzi of Despair]

I am getting a very similar issue.


Im at Grey Teeth, Crumbled Hollow. I walk up attack the shrine to start the fight get through the first wave. Then during the second wave the screen goes black. the ausio keep playing though and I have to kill it with task manager.

[Mister Awesomesauce]

It was happening at many locations, didn't seem to be location specific but time specifics. However the part that did it in for me (i can't recall the name because i've since uninstalled the game) was a boss battle where there was a mage of sorts summoning waves of skeletons and a big monster. This was relatively early in the game.
