I'd like to play this game, I really would, but every time I try to launch, it crashes before showing even a splash screen with the error: "The application failed to create the rendering device. Please make sure you meet the minimum specifications! (DX11 compatible GPU with the latest drivers installed.)"

I have played multiple DX11 games without issue, and DX12 is confirmed installed. Yes, it's the latest driver for the mobile GTX 1050 GPU.

Tried contacting support, but so far no reply except the first auto-response, hoping someone else may have seen this.

Are you sure the game is using your graphics card as it's rendering device? I had a while back that a game launched from gog would automatically use my built in intel graphics. Not nearly good enough of course. If you have NVIDIA, you can change the preferred graphics processor under 3-D settings.

Goodluck!

A reboot seems to have solved the problem for now. No clue what caused it or why the reboot solved it.
