GGG Patch Notes: "Fixed an unwanted interaction where players had fun playing the game"
My game now crashes EVERY time in loading screen. Can't play the game.

Win 11 23H2
MSI Nvidia RTX 3070 8GB
AMD Ryzen 7 3800X8
same for me, patch 0.1.0b did NOT fix the issue. it made it worse. now even on windowed mode, the PC crashes. I can't even get to the town in ACT1 Cruel...
this should be addressed ASAP

maybe it's the overlays. I have severals : NVIDEA, Discord, Steam
maybe it's the HDR i have enabled.

Config :
Win11 latest update
RTX 4070S
R7 5800X
1440p monitor 180Hz
G-sync enabled

Ah yes, so that is acceptable? Not asking your customers, who you took money off of, what the specific issue is or asking for information/data. Not warning players that damage to hardware may occur with these crashes. Mate, this is a JOKE. Stop defending them, this is very poor.

At this point I'm afraid to even load up the game. The last hot fix or 2 I haven't even been able to load a single zone. It might be on their known list but they're not really communicating either if they're making progress or if it's something that's not even their fault but if it's a Windows fault why is it happening on Windows 10 and windows 23h2 it's not just 24h2. Between This Thread and mine that's over 120 Pages 1,200 total comments about people crashing not just the client but the whole computer so yeah some people are taking this little seriously and I don't see the humor in mocking them for being frustrated

It's an early access, not definitive. Do you know how work an early access game? So, yes. It's acceptable. Report issues need to have a stable game at launch of definitive edition.
Early access does not mean you get a free pass on not addressing critical issues that could potentially damage users systems. Especially when its happening on a mass scale like this.

These issues are frustrating and I feel for you, however, they won't damage any hardware. Modern computers do not work like that.
At worst and only with some serious "luck" your drivers or OS might get shot.

Try win7 compatability mode for both .exe's if you havent yet.
Also, try rolling back to 23h2 if you can, this completely fixed the issue for me, even though I'm aware some other people claim it didnt for them.

Also, for ingame crashes and D3D12 errors: Switch to Vulkan.
