Is there another way to fix this without opening Terminal? The developer's new file hasn't really fixed the issue...

Not that I know of, fix was found on osxdaily dot com if you’d like to read about what the command does.

Guess I'll be putting off playing CSD2 for now, but thanks anyways.

Don’t be intimidated by Terminal. All you have to do is:

  1. Open Terminal
  2. Type xattr -cr and a space (don’t press return yet!)
  3. Drag the game icon onto the Terminal window, to
  4. Press return to run the command

Something went wonky with the “extended attributes” in the game files and they’re just getting in our way, so this command just clears them (-c is for clear, and -r applies it to the entire game’s files).

Not sure if you needed such a detailed explanation, but hope at least someone learns something!

Actually, I managed to download the game by moving the file to the applications folder. But thanks anyways!
