I can't offer much help unfortunately, but I love this idea. That was one of the main draws to Reddit for me. Chatting it up in GameDay threads was a blast.

It's TIME to DROOL!

I wanna say I had a similar issue a long while ago when first trying to play. My issue was my Corsair keyboard and the iCUE software for the keyboard. If you have a Corsair keyboard unplug it and if you have iCUE make sure to close it (this corrected the issue for me). Then try launching again. Hopefully that's the issue.

I'm assuming you have up to date GPU drivers and all that good stuff.
