I just bought the game from Steam a few days ago and the game will not load at all. I click to play the game and it attempts to load by flashing between a fullscreeen black box to a black box that goes into the upper right hand corner of my screen and just stays there. The game does not see that it has troubles loading until I force close it. What should I do? and here is the debug file
