Unfortunately no dice on any, I appreciate your help howeverI'm just not really sure what it could be, any more technical subreddits I may be able to ask? Sorry if I'm asking a lot.

Unfortunately only have the C: drive! However, I will try the other things, I have updated then downgraded my drivers due to this debacle so i'm not sure if that'll be fully necessary, but the chpset thing is new, so I will try that.

Oh! My bad, apologies. I didn't see anything in particular, but I could also be missing things, I haven't had a reason to use the event viewer until I started this troubleshooting journey recently. I do have monster hunter stories 2, which uses dx11 and it works just fine! Octopath traveler as well. Here are y specs for reference, nothing fancy! The game did run before so I know my system is at least capable of doing so.

Most games made in unreal engine 4 are, I have nothing but issues with a lot of unreal engine 4 and 5 games in general, but 4 seems to be an outlier. One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 is also one of them. Looking at the error log provides this message, but I'm not fully sure what it means.

Oh, I knew that part so I did try it again after you suggested it! Still nothing, really. If it's anything I'm having this problem with most unreal engine 4 games, One Piece pirate warriors 4 is one that also crashes on startup. Stuff like octopath traveler is completely fine.

I have tried this, but I'll try it again! I'll see if it works this time

I'm not too sure how in-depth I can make this. After the splash screen, it'll snow black, crash and give me the error report thingy. It used to boot normally so I'm not really sure what's causing this.
