It is a "NULL_POINTER_WRITE" or "NULL_CLASS_PTR_WRITE" access violation initiated by the "bink2w64.dll".
This means that whatever the DLL tried to access was in a memory location that is blocked from access by user mode applications or completely invalid.
The "bink2w64.dll" is developed by "RAD Video Tools" but is used in many games and also in the MELE. It is in the "...Binaries\Win64" folder.
This is the first time I see this error, so we can safely asume that the DLL is fine but something on your system is interfering.
Disable Origin in game.
Did you already preformed a clean boot?
If so did you do it exactly as described below, shutting the your virus scanner and tools like afterburner down as well?
Please preform a clean boot and test the Game in clean boot mode.
Make sure your virus scanner and other security software and also Afterburner and similar software is disabled.
Make also sure that your GPU & CPU are not overclocked.
On what drive is the MELE installed?
Do you installed any Mods or did you tried to install them?
Where there any error messages during installation?
Just a quick question. So I have the program files on my C drive and the game files are on my D drive does it matter where the files are installed because if that is the case I will have to figure out how to get the whole game installed on my D drive the c drive is not big enough.

The games files don't have to be in the Program files directory.
Normally it doesn't matter were the game is installed, but permissions problems or problems on the drive can cause an issue.
