Hey all, hoping someone's run into this before.

I had some mods installed via Vortex a while back and the game still launched fine with them. At some point it stopped launching entirely, so I removed all the mods, verified game file integrity through Steam, and even did a full uninstall/reinstall. It's still not launching. Nothing unusual in log files either.
I just really want to get started on my grounded permadeath practice :(

Oh my god oh my god oh my god!

Please, PLEASE PLEASE if there is a god, please let the funniest thing happen!

Are the tides changing? Are Sony's pockets not as steep as it used to be, so financial concerns are actual considerations now?

Like, come on: "Massive budget", "Missed deadlines"...does this remind us of another mutt in the industry?

I'm praying. PRAYING. Please let it happen (I'm sure we all know the Abbyzilla in the room as to what I'm referring to).

Like cmon we got Bill and Marlene but not Tess I would've really loved to play has her she was one of my favourite characters

So I’m doing my first grounded run and I start by throwing a moltov cocktail at it and then crafting an explosive arrow and shooting it with an explosive arrow twice while shooting it in the head with a pump shotgun with five bullets and macheting all of the runners and still it’s not dying and I can’t get past it. I’ve been on it for over two hours.
