Crimson Desert Enhanced: Crash After Todays Update (Workarounds)

Short answer

No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: Clearing your shader caches and verify the game files are the first things to try.

The problem

Crash since the last update. No text is displayed anymore, and the game stutters even when starting. Does anyone else have this problem?

Yes, after the update my game crashes after 2-3 minutes of playtime. I am bout to go crazy. I use AMD 9070 XT and updated my drivers as well. Still not fixed.

Mine keeps crashing after a while, no matter what I do. Downloaded the game a week ago, before DLC and it went great. Ive tried EVERYTHING. I was hoping today´s update would fix it but it seemingly did nothing.
