It says nothing in the game description about the EA app that needs to be installed along with the whole game and now i just get this error code when trying to start it up:
0xc000007b

So what is it? An Electronic Arts platform game that also runs on Steam, is it both?
This was fishy, maybe why it just cost me 2 euros, that along with it being from 2016 but it got good reviews so i got it.
I bet it´s that anticheat software that´s the culprit but i don´t know.
Edited in: I just searched for that error code and it seems it´s connected with files that can be missing and quite the heavy duty fix for it, Visual C++ or .NET runtime libraries under Windows 10.
This might be the step to go through with but it seems to take time and i don´t even know if this is it but for anyone else i´ll list the step that might run into the same type of problem fixing situation:
Step 2. Download and install every version listed — 2015, 2017, 2019, and 2022 — for both X86 and X64.
oh my gosh, well, if anyone knows more for sure drop me a line cheers.
I don´t dare to type the url to the page but i guess i do just to make sense with the above since it´s taken from a page that´s regarding the above mentioned error code, here:
https://www.windowsmode.com/fix-windows-error-code-0xc000007b/#Video_How_to_Fix_Error_0xc000007b_on_Windows
I hope this makes sense so far, done with this for now and since it just costed me 2 euros i´ll hang on to it despite this dual platform nonsense NOT mentioned before going through with the purchase.
