Horizon Zero Dawn™ Complete Edition

Pretty but doesn't work

I've played this game a lot on PS4 and it's worth buying a preowned PS4 just to play this game if you don't already have one or a Ps5 or whatever. On PC this game refuses to work which is really disappointing. It's Guerilla Games' first time putting a game on PC which is understandable but it seems like it's going to remain in this state where it works for many people and doesn't work at all for a few. Unfortunately I'm in the few where it doesn't work. I have tried many things to make it work including, but not limited to: -Reinstalling Windows -Refreshing graphics drivers, rolling back/updating -Hardware-Assisted GPU scheduling (actually made it worse) -Changed graphics cards The game appeared to run fine for a while on my old system running an i9 9900K and GTX 1080 TI SLI (this game does not support SLI) but later upgraded to an RTX 3090. Somewhere between those two I guess something must have changed and now the game doesn't work right. I don't even have to do anything and it just crashes. I start the game and just idle in it for 10 minutes and it crashes. That was just a few minutes ago of this review. Now I run a Ryzen 9 5950X with a new motherboard and the same RTX 3090 and the game doesn't work right even still. My 1/5 star rating comes entirely from the game's inability to run. The quality of the game is unbelievably good but if you can't even play and enjoy it, what's the point?
