All drivers up to date. It's been doing it from day one, normally I wouldn't deal with it and would just refund but, well, 130 hours and it's a little hard, but the game is so good. I deal with it but it's infuriating and like I have to roll to keep the game running (this is my sad attempt at a joke). You shouldn't have to jump through a bunch of hoops to avoid the game crashing, it should work, there are clearly some problems here and I don't think BIOS/gpu settings are at fault.

The game is just buggy, it gets worse as the game goes on and I crash a lot more in Act III than I do in earlier acts.

That’s a damn shame to be having such issues when your PC specs are so good. Hopefully the first big patch manages to target why some people are getting frequent crashes. It doesn’t appear to be limited to one vendor of CPU or GPU judging by this thread.


Personally I’ve not experienced a single crash in 100 hours of play since release. I would be curious to see if anyone with the same specs as myself have any issues. As I only upgrade every second GPU cycle my specs are only as follows:

Windows 11
Ryzen 5800X
32 GB of DDR4 RAM
3080

I play using DX11 on full screen mode with the frames limited to 144 and the Larian launcher disabled through the steam options. Not that I think it’s relevant but I’ve got the graphic settings on ultra.
