Black screen
Another one with a black screen.

I played a couple of days ago just fine, got to the point where you get to your brothers house and have a fight with the guy who turns up.

Closed the game after the cutscene where you wash your face off then are able to explore the room and now when I play there is a black screen, it's the cutscene where she's washing her face and saying she is OK.

Main menu is fine, I can hear the sounds and music, overlay works fine too.

I haven't used my PC for two days so nothing I have installed or changed.

Samsung 980 Pro 2tb
LG CX

Latest Nvidia drivers and Windows 10 pro.

Really disappointed.

Same here!

I have tried setting everything to low, dx 11 and 12 mode, disabling Ray tracing, changing display mode and resolutions, verifying the game, reinstalling, deleting dx cache, deleting nvidia cache and deleting games preferences in appdata folder.

If you start a new game after this occurs you get a black screen. If you exit the game and start a new game it works perfectly.

I haven't reinstalled my GPU driver or done additional time consuming trouble shooting as something is obviously wrong with the game itself.

For whatever reason exiting when that happened and resuming in that particular cutscene results in this issue and prevents anything 3d from being rendered until you restart and start a new game.

Was really looking forward to playing too!

This happened to me, I do not want to restart already, this is annoying!

Edit - The only way I got it to work was to restart the chapter before. Overwriting my previous save with this new one.
