I just built a new gaming PC. I downloaded Destiny 2 through Steam and every time I try to start the game, it crashes at the load screen. My PC exceeds the minimum requirements for Destiny 2. I spent all day trying every piece of advice I could find online. Here is a list of everything I have tried:
1. Made sure drivers and OS are up-to-date.
2. Disabled screen overlay apps.
3. Tried running Destiny as Admin.
4. Cleared caches everywhere I could think to clear caches
5. Deleted and reinstalled Destiny.
6. Validated installation files within Steam.
7. Disabled Windows Defender firewalls and anti-virus.
8. Probably did some other stuff that I can't think of right now.
My PC Hardware:
1. Windows 10 Pro
2. Asus Prime Z690 M Plus D4 Motherboard
3. 32 GB DDR4 RAM
4. 12th Gen Intel Core i7 processor
5. EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Graphics Card
6. 2 TB M.2 NVME storage
I really don't see why I should be having this much trouble getting this game to work. It's literally a brand new PC with not much on it that should be causing any conflict. I have not done any overclocking at this point and I let NVIDIA Automatically optimize settings for games. Any suggestions?
