So I manage play 3-4 hours into story, visited first town twice. Now I have saved my character near personal stash in village and cannot continue game. Every time I load save, game keep crashing to desktop, making it unplayable at all.

Was already trying to play with graphics settings but even on low - it just keeps crashing. Also tried to load earlier autosave and guess what ? Keeps crashing ...

For me it is game over for some time until they patch it up or some good soul here have an idea how to fix this issue.

Playing on Ryzen 9 5900X, 2080 Ti and 64GB RAM on fresh installation of windows 10.

Same problem here..version 436 offline

Thanks for answers lads, looks like current offline files are version 424, I will give a try with gog galaxy and post results :)

Update:

so far so good, after installing gog galaxy game updated itself, I was able load save and no crashes so far.

Wondering when gog will update offline installer then.
