Steam doesn't launch Dark Souls 3
I still haven't been able to play the game. Instead I get the same problem that some people had with the first Dark Souls. The problem is that Steam doesn't launch the game properly! I tried to verify the cache files and it tells me that everything's fine, so what can I do?
If anyone has a way to make me play... I will thank you with my heart :( :(
Also when is all these problems going to be patched? I never bought any other game on day 1 so I don't know how much I will have to wait before playing this game properly... I hope someone could give me a hint... thank you in advance, such a shame that this game is so flawed right now :(

Maybe I found the solution, open your gamedirection and try to start the exe File of DS3, when you get an erroemassage stayting the d3dcompiler_43.dll is missing, you have to update the your directx. It seems to work, lets see how long till the next error.

I've got Windows 10 pro, so... I should already have DirectX 11.4 installed right?
Furthermore, the error message that pops out when I launch the exe file on the game folder doesn't say that a file is missing, it just says "Impossible to start the application (0xc000007b)."
If you know what that could mean, please tell me. Thank you for answering me

I have the exact same issue.
I've been following several forums and can't find a solution. Some things you can try that have not worked out for me but some people claim they had for them:

*Update .NET Framework from Microsoft. Current version is 4.6.2
*Update your graphic card drivers.
*Reinstall all vclist redistributables from Microsoft, both x86 and x64. If I recall correctly there are 2005, 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2015 versions. (re)Install them all.
*Reinstall DirectX.
*Use Dependency Walker (google it) to see which .dlls needed by Dark Souls 3 are missing from your system, download them one by one and put them on the system32 or sysWOW64 folder of your system.

Thanks, but I already took care of it. I disinstalled Dark souls 3, refunded it and bought MGSV instead. :) :)
I'll play DS3 when it gets lowered of price... And if they fix this damn bug. Anyway thank you very much for your answer :)
