Ok new patch came out and it runs again.
There is a new goblin scenario which is not purchasable.
I had the same start game issues many others were having. I was able to glitch it into playing until o needed to change team (Lem quest). And then I couldn't get it running for days.
Furthermore,
How can the credits list of names be THAT LONG, and no one can figure out the crashes?
I haven't been able to play in 3 days, and don't want to give up but come on..................
