I love the art and the story of this game but it keeps getting random crashes after some cinematics or when transitioning to another scene, the game is so unstable and it's frustrating, today I played for about half an hour and I go three crashes in three different stages, I don't wanna ask for a refund (I don't think I can, either), I'd prefer to wait for the patches, but I've been playing it since it was released and no patch has arrived (only one I guess).

I would like to know if there's something I can do meanwhile. If deactivating something could get it working properly, I have a GTX 6550 card and 16 GB ram (I don't remember the processor).

I hope we get a stability patch soon, because those crashes are ruining a beautiful game and a beautiful saga.

Important that you id your CPU. Here you are:

Once you are armed with that knowledge, compare your hardware to the minimum hardware requirements listed on the GOG store page. Game should not be crashing like this.

Hello--

I'm having a similar situation but I'm somewhere in the middle of the game. I can't seem to make it go any further than the scene after there is a shoot-out. I have finished the chapter called "Siberspiegel Refuge (part 2)" but it won't progress to "Musician District (Part 3)".

It won't let me attach the DxDiag text file for some reason, it keeps saying "Wrong file format!", is there a particular section can copy and paste for you? Or I can email perhaps?

Thank you for your time!
