Hello, I have been a very long time Black Isle\Obsidian fan, and have been following PoE since the first information has been released about it. But I'm worried about something. I have two computers, both which refuse to play Shadowrun Returns, Space Hulk, and Wasteland 2. They either immediately crash to desktop with a "Opps the game crashed" message, or shortly after the first couple of developer splash screens. After researching for hours every month or two, I have tried everything to get these games to run, such as searching for corrupted fonts, etc. The games just refuse to run. I was able to get Shadowrun to run for several months last summer, but after a patch this problem surfaced.
This is incredibly frustrating and gives me anxiety that I will not be able to play PoE or Numenara when they are released. I specifically created my account just now to ask if anyone can help alleviate some of the doubt I'm having about the engine.
Thanks everyone for the replies. As for everyones suggestion to talk to tech support, I have numerous times. I wasn't asking for tech support; rather I'm wondering if anyone had knowledge about the subject. Other people have this issue; it isn't a unique case. There is some theory that its related to Windows update itself releasing something corrupted that messes with the engine. I can only hope that the problem will have been addressed when PoE releases.
