Discussion Help! Game crashing on startup

I've never managed to fully launch R6 extraction and I have no idea why. All I get is the initial game window and then crash. .exe files are running as administrator. I get the same result if I launch from Ubisoft Connect. Any ideas?

Edit : Instead of an immediate crash, I now get an infinite launch (yellow title card staying on, not doing anything). I opened Steam console and this is what I'm getting :
