when i click on the game, either in steam or on the desktop. The game gets up to the flashing light warning/advisory screen before turning black and crashing. Making it impossible to actually play the game. I am on the steam version of the game, out of the 5 attempts to play the game all 5 failed and gave the same unreal engine crash report
#Game crashes when trying to run

after looking at it further, i realized that it is more of a hardware issue. 🥲
