- I attempted to play Final fantasy XV Windows Edition, I was excited, then it crashed as soon as I opened it. After 3 hours troubleshooting, I found the WEIRD reason for it. I hope this helps someone.

I payed about 40 dollars for this game on steam it won't even load why doesn't steam fix this so people don't have to do all this extra crap and possibly putting viruses on their computer it says server isn't reachable ti check my internet but its fine
Steam is only a platform where publishers/developers will put their games at, Steam does not touch the code that is not their property and if the game runs well for the majority of players, Steam will not do anything. In this case, it seems a lot of players have different kind of issues that almost always track down to hardware compatibility, which is Square Enix's responsibility, but we know that they are pretty shit at supporting their PC single player games.
SAME THING FOR ME! This was so annoying to deal with until I found your video and it really helped! Thank you!😁
For everyone who's here and has an RTX card: Check if you have DLSS enabled. My game was crashing every 5 minutes when i had it turned on. Better run it on a lower resolution or lower settings than not at all.
This port has so many points of failure, thank you for sharing!
Got too the part where you escort gladius sister and have to take down a base now Everytime I return to her to rest or anytime I rest at camp I crash
Mine loads but as soon as i move with Noctus it crashes.
So, as long as no movement is done, the game runs fine? Or it crashes shortly after loading?
my game crashes before logo even shows up. Pretty much CTD on launch
the game keeps crashing for me at chapter 15 boss fight after you take elevator you fight the one who throws shuriken at you, when I almost beat this king, the game crashes, tried it 3 times..
Is this what you’re supposed to do when the loading screen is not going full like the bar cycling like halfway
This is specifically for when the game keeps getting frozen over and over without having to do anything, I'm afraid it does not fix the issue you mention.
game was working fine for about 3 hours then decided not to work anymore about 3 hours of trying to get it to work found this video, proceeded to plug in a ps4 controller and just magically started working fine
mine is super weird it loads and runs perfectly smooth in the prologue but then as soon as it loads into chapter one it just crashes just goes black screen and poof back to
my desktop i couldn't fix it at all, i tried all things
my PC is a 7700X not OC, with an RTX4070 also not OC and my RAM is instead of 6500mhz clocked to 6000mhz bc my CPU can't handle higher RAM speed, so i really dunno what is causing it to crash on my PC so i refunded it on Steam
This sounds like an an issue in the game itself. This port is terible and has many many issues, good thing you were able to refund it
@@ReneChiqueteGaming i was thinking if it maybe is due to my SSD maybe the SN850X is too fast for the game and lets it crash? which would be a very weird reason but given how bad of a port it is as you say it may could be it
There are a lot of shortcuts used internally to make things work in games, and a lot of assumptions may be made which then are met with something unexpected, so it is entirely possible having a computer too good for what the game expects would break it !
I don’t experience that I experience totally total shut off pc by it self when you are playing the game I still don’t get it.
That sounds more like an issue related to the Power supply not being able to keep up with the needs of the computer, are you still experiencing that?
I had it worse my game crashed my entire pc and even disabled my gfx card after i reenabled my gfx card i was able to load up the game but when i load the autosave it crashed my pc again
Wow, that is some world ending stuff, this game does some very weird things, like basically all Square Enix port. It is very resource intensive, has memory leak issues, etc. I highly recommend only playing it after installing the (unofficial) performance patch fixes. You can find it on the community pages on Steam: steamcommunity.com/app/637650/discussions/0/1697167168518535998/
everytime when i sleep and it shows the photos prompto has taken and everytime i go there it crashes and it didnt save the damn progress so fuck this game
I haven't experienced crashes but I have had many performance problems, it is a challenge to play it
@@ReneChiqueteGamingit's such a shoddy, buggy piece of crap, I am legit pissed off enough I want a refund. The whole game industry is trash right now. It should be easier than ever to service a game and keep it functional but they just won't.
Thats the same controller’s problem wireless with fifa23
yes, this seems to be a Windows+wireless Xbox controllers issue! So any game that uses the same input check will experience the same behavior
But then came the next problem, the video memory problem :O. Hope you solved that one too!
That was just me being greedy. I am streaming at 1080p/60FPS using my GPU (I have a GTX 1080) which is not bad, but I am also running a really graphics demanding game, I had all the settings to the max and while I didn't have problems in the game (it was giving me 100+ FPS) the stream was suffering some dropped frames. This is common as Windows prioritizes the games over OBS, and since this game was running at uncapped frame rate, it was using all the resources, basically leaving only scraps for the stream. After I capped the game at 60 FPS the GPU had room for the stream to work without issues. This is a problem that happens with any game with uncapped frame rate that are GPU heavy.
Mine is crashing,
Windowed mode, and ram 8 Gb
The game does have multiple technical issues, there are a bunch of patches made by the community to try and have it be more stable. Sadly it is common for Square Enix to release bad ports and never fix them.
Broooo thank you so much i just conected my pro controller and the game just stopped crashing
Glad it helped someone!
@@ReneChiquete lol never mind played it for like an hour and i got blue screened
@@jacobblitshtein419 aww :( For hard crashes I recommend taking down all the nvidia related settings, and see if that helps!
@@ReneChiquete already did everything ill just return it and buy it for the ps4
@@jacobblitshtein419 It does sound like a better bet, especially since it is included in the XBOX game pass for PC as well!
Tentei de tudo, até esse do controle. Mas sabe o que deu certo no meu? deixar a taxa de FPS em 30... todo resto não funcionou. Jogando com gráficos no máximo, mas com a taxa em 30 fps e sem Vsync.... vai entender esse jogo, port mal feito.
No meu caso o problema era bem específico, o jogo tem uma infinidade de problemas relacionados aos gráficos, infelizmente, mas fico feliz que você encontre uma solução para o seu problema!
You earned a sub from me! Thanks man!
if this fixes it im going to be happy but also I'm going to scream
edit: it didn't work for me, its still unresponsive, but now i know a trick when nothing else works
FF XV seems to be notorious for its performance issues, and graphics cards that are older than RTX 2000 series seem to have many weird behaviors, hopefully you'll be able to make it work
Ahora gracias a ti, me he dado cuenta de que me empezó a pasar lo mismo desde que conecte me mandó de xbox360, tengo que probarlo.
It works at least for me. (Spanish) Muchas gracias, yo tenia este problema pero sucedía cuando cerraba el juego o cuando cambiaba el modo de pantalla completa a ventana y me de daba un crash, pero ahora ya no, conecte mi control de PS4 v2 y se terminaron mis problemas.
I swear to god if this works i'll message you a drawing of a heart.
If you have the same controller and/or wireless dongle as I do, it is very possible that it will help! Unfortunately, there seems to by many other causes for crashes besides that
you could have used the 3 hours to play walking sim instead Kappa
There's time for that :)
Leo si funciona, hasta funciona el teclado
You’re kidding.. 😂
Sadly, I'm not. It seems this is a VERY specific issue with the Xbox one Elite controllers (version 1) and the bo wireless dongle (as this controller is not compatible with regular bluetooth). This has happened in other 2 games now, and now I always know how to solve it.
Dunno what u did now.. 6 minutes for nothing
I demonstrated that the game was crashing for not having the control connected, this seems to be an issue with this specific control (Xbox one elite Mark 1) and/or the Microsoft wireless adapter.
