I wish I knew what the issue is, but I tried all the recommended fixes from verifying steam files to reinstall, disabling all overlays, lowering all settings, closing background applicaitons and so on
it just is super inconsistent in crashing halway or very close to the end of missions, was trying the last drachenfels one and 4/4 times now I crashed right around where the third tome is or shortly after, 2 days ago I could play for like 4 hours with no issue but then eventually itd just happen again and keep happening

@NineMH glad to hear things have improved a little. This is a unique crash with a single occurrence unique to your system and it’s very peculiar, something we describe internally as an “impossible crash” which could indicate hardware failure.

We noticed you have a 14th Gen i7-14700K which may have felled victim to hardware degradation which is common with 13th and 14th series i7/i9’s.

For more information on the possible underlying issue, please refer to:

There are BIOS updates available to mitigate/resolve issues for 13th/14th Gen CPU’s, so I would recommend checking that your BIOS is up-to-date. Though, we advise caution when performing firmware updates, and to do so at your own risk.

BIOS update appears to have helped, tho I did update out of fear of said degredation a little over a year ago (noticed it when tekken would crash without fail)
Either way thank you so much for the help! Have a good Christmas / New Years time!
