Having the game be unable to launch without crashing for the past week has done a good job of keeping me away. I could technically play on my secondary desktop, but that one's not really set up to be a gaming machine and swapping around my nice keyboard and mouse and stuff between two machines all the tine would be a pain. Normally I'd try to fix the issue, but a reinstall didn't help and I can't be bothered to try anything more in-depth since I'm going to be doing some hardware upgrades in the near future anyways. On the bright side, this has given me more time to play other things, so I'm not too terribly upset.
