It could also be my onboard graphics card intel, whilst a lot of games work, my machine is out dated and my nvidia card in my dual graphics build is broke, I am on a laptop to be honest, but think the game was just made for higher quality graphics cards, that is why it failed to initialize, I typically get games that work on universal graphics cards to work 99% of the time. lol So initially I just had hoped this would have updated to allow lower end graphics cards to run it. Not to mention my windows is outdated perhaps everyone here is running windows 10+ Tell you what I'll show you a screen shot of the error and you see I get these a lot with some games that need specific graphics driver or better hardware.
