If anyone else's PC crashes, or if the game simply opens without a title (in my case, my PC would crash and freeze, forcing me to restart using the power button), the solution the author provided below worked for me. It would be great if they pinned it as a "Solution to Possible Problems."
Solution:
To launch the game with this startup argument: --rendering-driver d3d12
Process of launching the game with a startup argument:
- Find the game's .exe file
- Right-click and create a shortcut to it
- Right-click the shortcut, open Properties, and find the Target field
- Add the above argument to the end of the path (make sure there's a space between them)
- Use the new shortcut to launch the game
