Game will not launch
Bought this game on the day of release and wasn't able to launch.

Waited a couple months to let the bugs get worked out.

Still can't launch.

I've tried every fix/workaround on the forum to no avail.

What are your specs? Do you have the latest GPU drivers installed?
How does it not launch? Like it automatically CTD? Or do you reach a certain point before it crashes?

Yes, my GPU is up to date and my PC meets all necessary requirements.

I click play and wait 3 seconds, the button then turns back to the green play button. No windows pop up and nothing bounces.

Game work fine, search bug in your PC

I've seen you comment this on other posts of people who have the same problem as me.

Its clearly a problem with the game.

Thanks for your useless comment nonetheless.

Yep.

Like I stated above, I've tried every "fix" in the forums.

The only times that happened to me was when my cousin was trying to run games iin an underpowered Linux rig. All games won't run and it'll just go back to a green play button after a few seconds. If your PC really does meet the requirements, then

Only things I can think of are:
- delete DirectX and do a fresh install of it
- try setting the .exe to run on a compatibility mode to older versions of Windows
- try opening task manager and see if your CPU/RAM spikes right before the game crashes. Might be a hardware issue.
- fresh install of Windows.
- verify game integrity.

If those won't work, sorry.

Check and make sure your anti-virus isn't killing it.

Also are you on windows or Linux?
