Fore-note: I play on a custom PC


Description of issue:

After having downloaded the Vitruvian Update around march 30th, I attempted to open the game but it crashes before it can even start up. After referring to a number of articles and attempting a number of resolutions (listed below) I have come to a dead end in regards to my own knowledge. I don't receive any crash message nor can I locate where the issue is occurring exactly, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.


Attempted resolutions:

   Verified file integrity of humankind through steam

   Verified that Sonic Studio/Nahimic Companion are not on my computer

   Verified that drivers were up to date

   Verified Anti-virus wasn't interfering or tagging Humankind as bad

   Referenced the Known issues thread

   Attempted the -force-vulkan command, no resolution

   Removed prior saves to rule out file corruption due to prior world save

   Waited for time to pass to see if next update would resolve, it didn't
