PC Shut down

[Reginus « Gerhard » Paulus]

I was playing and everything was fine, no crazy FPS fluctuation, haven't got out the first lab and was about to pass the point when the tutorial tells you how to crouch when my PC completely shut down. Now, obviously, my PC ain't worth 10k, but let me assure you it can easily play games like Red Dead Redemption 2 without any stutter, Grounded 1 at max settings as well, Spider-Man Remastered, Xcom 2 with 800 mods, and so on. I'm just making this disclaimer so to not prematurely jump to conclusion that it is a PC problem and not an optimization one. Hope this report is of some use.

I can't edit my post, so here's an amendment to it : I'm playing with my kid, she's playing with my old gaming laptop. She seems to have no issue playing with low settings, the laptop doesn't shut down. It's a 2014 laptop. My PC is much, much more recent than my laptop and yet it completely shuts down a few minutes into the game. I'm confused.

Same issue as my partner.

Specs above minimum:
Ryzen 3600
5700 XT
32GB Ram.

Assuming just a launch issue?

I hope so. My guess is that it is poorly optimized (as expected for an EA) and there may be memory leaks or something that cause huge, unnatural GPU/CPU spikes that force the PC to shut down. And the reason my laptop doesn't shut down is because it throttles performance to stay cool (why my PC wouldn't do the same, I don't have a clue). I mean, there's no world in which it is reasonable that I can play Cyberpunk 2077 and not Grounded 2 lol It has to be an issue on their end and I'll try next week hoping they fix whatever causes this issue.

Also, I don't know if these forum or monitored as opposed to the Steam forums, but I'd like to report that when you kill a fly in the beginning of the game and it fall in the water, the body disappear like a water droplet.
