Startup crash FIX! (Worked for me)

[derkr0w ⛓]

When i bought the game i was getting a crash when i started it up, in a short amount of time i managed to fix it

First of all you're going to see if your graphic card's drivers are updated, go to Geforce Experience and update it, if you're an AMD user search for updates on AMD softwares.

Second step is to access Dark Souls 3 folder
Library > Right-Click Dark Souls 3 > Properties > Local Files > Browse local files.

Now right click the Dark Souls 3 executable > Properties > Compatibility > Check "Run this program in compatibility mode" > Select Windows 7 (if you're using Windows 8 or higher) > Check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings"

Now click "Apply" and launch the game, when the window appears Alt+Tab the game window for a few times and then switch to the game window again, if it still crashes try again.
