Problem with starting the game
Hello, I had a break in the game, today I installed it again. Unfortunately, the game does not start. A game window appears with the text "waiting for the game" and that's it, after a few minutes the window disappears but the game does not start. Can someone help me, everything worked every time and now after installation the game won't start.

When i bought this game, my pc was fine with producer information. I've played this game even on high graphic settings with no problem. So now you say i cant play it anymore cause producer changed regulations?

x79 CPUs do not have AVX2 support. This game now requires AVX2, even though I am sure they could have implemented AVX2 as a toggle for AVX2 capable CPUs only.

Regardless you won't be able to play this game with x79 CPU. x99 / Haswell or newer Intel CPU supports AVX2. Or Ryzen from AMD side.

You can refund if you played less than 2 hours. But in this case if you explain what exactly the issue is to Steam support you should be able to refund it.

You have less than 10 hours and game stopped working completely forcing you to upgrade your PC. Which I assume you don't want to do right now.

Thank you so much for taking your time. I will try to refund. I hope it will be possible. I would like to upgrade my pc but there are some things in real life that won't allow me to do that for long time. Have a good time and hope to see you well.
