Game won't launch
Hello fellow gamers. I bought Disco Elysium a few weeks ago when I saw the update that it could run on potato machines, mine being one. Unfortunately I am not able to play it.
Im a novice with regards to troubleshooting (I usually use Google). In this instance I was not able to find anything clearly. The problem is that I cannot launch the game at all (I add and image to show the problem):

Whenever I click on the startup icon I see that screen for a few seconds and then nothing happens. I do not understans the error, if it is minor (drivers) o major (need a better pc).

My potato machine can run the following sample of games:

Divinity: Original Sin
Pillars of Eternity
The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition

And these are my hardware specifications:

AMD Radeon Graphics Processor
AMD A10 5750m APU with Radeon (tm) HD graphics 2.50ghz
8 GB RAM

Hopefully its something solvable!

Hi there xxQuijotexx, really sorry to hear you are having issues launching the game. Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing? We would also recommend verifying the game files integrity. If you still don't have any luck with that please do provide your details in our bug report - https://forms.gle/JgMUYmpfsdS6i33k6 - so the developers can investigate and figure out why you might be having issues. Many thanks for your patience!

I have similar spec, AMD-A10-5750m paired with 7970m runs fine on ALL other Unity engine game except this one. I think it's the GPU and drivers, we can't update to latest AMD GPU drivers becuase of campatibility issues. Game does no launch and no bug report, please advise how to obtain this report.

Swiched off GPU 7970m and use onboard HD 8650G and it works (got to menu screen)! but game runs 5fps.

Estoy viendo que hay gente con este error desde hace casi un año...al final lo he puesto en el portátil y funciona, pero es una pena.

Tengo una Nvidia 1080Ti
