Those chrashes are so wierd. First I played last league without a single crash (from 1st of july), then somewhere at the end of that league or start at this I suddenly had one crash a while - not much so - but I was surprised. Did I start Diablo 4 by mistake ?

But Shadow and GI was power consuming - and read someone else had it that way so I changed from Ultra to High. Then suddenly the crashes became more frequent. At least ten to fiftheen and it was quite annoying. Read about other that had this kind of problem but the most crashed in the towns. I never crashed in the town. Couldnt see a pattern at all. Then in act two at "The Crypt" I had it three or four times in like five mionutes. Crashed to deskto, started the game played half a minute and repeat.

I changed Shadow and GI from High to Low (if that was the third step), and I played a few hours and no crash. Strange problem - couldnt understand it, seems to be no logic. Continued to play and lets say ten hours (lost time total today) later not a crash.

And now in Town just three crashes in a couple of minutes.Never a crash in town. Never one when idled (I do a lot). Doesnt matter if I idle, walking, click vendor its freeze for a few seconds, then at desktop. One of all took the sound so I had to restart.

This is something GGG should priority I think. Some has it so frequent (like me right now) that they can't play it. But I am still unsure how common it is. It is not like the forum when I played D4, but still a bit.

And it is not a my end. Somthing with some patch must have done it. I also loooked at nVidia drivers, but it was not at that date it started. I will change one thing and then next and see - but it would surprise me. And what if I need to change two? Almost impossible to keep track of.

My PC is from the stone age compared to yours and I have the same crash issue. Never in 10 years of playing have I had this issue. It all started with that god damn patch they introduced last league to "improve performance". Ever since then the client has been an absolute nightmare, crashing to desktop at the most random moments. Including in towns or when interacting with vendors, but also occasionally in maps or boss fights. I can't believe this now passes for an update at GGG. They're just going to leave the game like this for the whole league I already know it. Everyone in this thread is screwed, enjoy crashing every 10-15 minutes. I've tried everything to fix it outside of literally reinstalling Windows 10, nothing works whatsoever. This is 100% a bugged client.
