Game crashes on startup, but you can actually play for maybe 10 minutes before game stops

Basic Info:

Platform: Steam
Issue Type: Crash
Game Mode: =GAME MODE=
Server Type: =SERVER TYPE=
Map: =MAP=
Server Name: =SERVER NAME=
Mods: =MODS=

The Game will give a crash error while the Conan Exiles banner first displays. If you don’t hit “OK” you can get through opening videos, server select, and actually play for a while before the whole game crashes.

No mods.

I’ve verified files, cleared local cache, removed the modlist.txt file, and reinstalled. Still have the issue.

Seeing the following in the crash logs:

Thanks for the response, Funcom.

I had to remove all files (not uninstall, but delete all the files from the Exiles Directory). After that, I did a reinstall/verify integrity and was able to play again.

Hope that helps someone else, since support was useless.
