Dishonored 2 wont launch (beehaw.org)

I recently built a new computer and am going through and playing all the stuff I couldn't before. I was particularly excited for Dishonored 2, as I loved the first one. Unfortunately when I try to open it in steam it acts like it's going to launch and then just doesn't. I've uninstalled reinstalled, I've tried run as admin, I've verified the game files, I've ran it in comparability mode, disbled onboard graphics. Nothing.

I know this is an older game at this point, does anyone know of a magic bullet fix for this? It seems like a fairly common issue with no common solution whatsoever.

I'm on windows 10 if that matters.

I had issues with Dishonored when it launched years ago also. Have you updated your graphics drivers or checked the Steam Community page for troubleshooting as well?

Looking at the community page there are definitely other people with the same or similar issues. No unique solutions though. Just the things I've already tried (which I list in a different comment).

This is so depressing.
