What's weird is that it was working fine until they updated it. I played 4 hours of it with decent graphics quality and framerate

Same here. I got it yesterday; my daughter gave it to me for Christmas. Dang...

Your graphics card is below the minimum spec requirements. The game requires at least 8GB of video RAM. The error message you posted is likely caused by insufficient VRAM space (Dedicated video memory) from your graphics card.

Add: This thread may help. It involves rolling back video drivers to a specific version.
