Bought the game, backed it up on a BD-DL, which took an hour and almost failed because my ASUS BD drive is really jank.

Then after marking my disc and putting it away, I ran the game and got this.

"The following component(s) are required to run this program:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime"

I don't mean to sound like a crotchety old man, but WOULD IT KILL YOU TO INCLUDE OBVIOUS REDISTS WITH YOUR GAME SO IT CAN ACTUALLY RUN? I've had this happen with at least 2 or 3 other GoG games (Like System Shock 1 Enhanced, and I think Desperados)

I'm on Windows 10 64 bit. I've had updates paused for like a week or two, but come on man. Could the error message at least tell me what version of a Visual C++ redist I need? (It might be Microsoft Visual C++ 2022 according to Steam forums)

Apparently the game works anyway if you go to C:\GOG Games\RoboCop Rogue City\Game\Binaries\Win64 and make a shortcut to the RoboCop-Win64-Shipping executable, and run it that way. Why is this? Older version of the game's executable or something?

Simply Google "Visual C++ Runtime" and you should find a download for an installer. That's what I did and the game launches just fine since running the installer.
