Same here

Is there any workaround?

[Raggedy doctor]

I tested pressing ESC and space repeatedly while the game loads and shows the splash screen. This allows me to get to the menu and play the game. Probably skips some intro which is somehow causing the crash.

tried it but didnt worked :(

[Raggedy doctor]

:( works every time for me. Let's hope they patch soon.

I launched the game 3 times just fine with the intro, but after that I couldn't launch it anymore, it always stops responding on the first loading screen. Restarting the PC didn't help to make it work again.

Only thing I'm aware I've done between/after those launches is:
- ran CCleaner and did a file and registry cleanup (might be the guilty)
- uninstalled Witcher 3 (can be related, if uninstalled something else to play videos? though unlikely)
- changed some OBS Studio settings (I assume it's unrelated)


EDIT: tried again last night and it launched on first try without locking up. Go figure.

I have the same issue with mine, it locks up on the loading screen.

It did work when I first bought the game last week, so it must have been something done in the patch.

[Midkemian.Avenger]

Yeah sorry that's the entirety of the output_log.txt I don't run antivirus I'll try some of the launcher options and see if I can get it to work

[Nap]

Is anyone here still having this issue?

[Raeneal87]

Did anyone find a work around for this issue? My husband bought me the game so we could play together. when I load the game it loads the loading screen and will shut off, and a couple time got passed the loading screen but no picture just sound. my husbands computer runs it just fine. No interfering software, not antivirus, no program interference. My husband and I have tried restarting the computer but nothing seems to work.... help.

I'm still having this issue on an Optiplex 390. Sometimes it crashes when it finishes loading. Sometimes it finishes loading and I get a black screen but I can hear the audio of the intro video. Tried updates, reboot, hitting keys to skip intro. No luck.
