Game Will Not Start With No Error Message
I own this game through Steam, but Steam said Come here and I still haven't found anything helpful
CONTEXT
- I have played this game for roughly 48 hours in total; I've owned it since 2022.
- I was going on a family trip and decided that while I did not want to bring my pc, I could bring my laptop and work on my current house on there.
- I downloaded the game and the EA app on my laptop. Got it all straightened out, and it was fine.
- It did not have my saves, figured it was just because those were computer-specific and not cloud saves, no problem, I just made a new world.
- I was playing in offline mode, I'm not sure if that affects this.
- The problem started when I got back. I tried to start it up on my pc. It loads up the loading menu, starts playing the intro music, and quits out of the game. Opens the EA app, but there's no error message or anything; it just quits. Does not show the main menu. Quits just before that starts, I think.
- The goal is to just get the game running on my pc again
- I have no mods. I have two free add-on DLCs that I can't figure out how to remove, but I doubt that's an issue
HOW I'VE TRIED TO FIX IT
- I've logged out and logged back in to every possible related thing in every possible combination on my laptop and pc. Didn't work
- I've uninstalled the EA app and Steam from my laptop. Didn't work
- I've cleared my Steam cache and my EA app Cache. Didn't work
- I've done all of this sequentially while also uninstalling and reinstalling my game. Didn't work
- I made sure every file was deleted from my PC, because apparently, even uninstalling it keeps things. Reinstalled it. Didn't work
- I've updated drivers, updated Windows, updated EA, and Steam doesn't update, but I would if I could
- Absolutely nothing has worked, and I see no relevant feeds on here. There is 100% no notification of an error anywhere. The game just quits itself.
- Steam says there's nothing corrupted or broken. All my files were backed up before my trip, but I've since deleted those.
Any Input would be amazing.
