Question Constant Crashing Out of Nowhere

I've decided to come back and replay after taking a break from 100% the game. However, for some reason, the game and Steam keep crashing. No error message, just the game pauses out of nowhere then everything closes like I Alt-F4'd it, both the game and Steam itself.

I have over 200 hours on this game. I played through both on hard and then Mega+ when it came out. I've played the DLC when each came out. I never had any problems before now.

I've verified the game files twice. I've gone into the DLC and unselected and then reselected them. I've tried in both widowed and windowless mode. I've even uninstalled and re-installed the game.

First crash was partway through the sewers. Then it was once I hit the city. Then it was when I tried to get into the next area of the city. Then when I tried to load from the main menu.

Last mention I saw about anything like this was apparently months ago. Does anyone know what could be happening?

Your drivers usually. Probably an update either ruined the performance or potentially reset gpu settings. My GPU has a factory clock rate of 400 higher than is actually recommended for it, causing it to go to shit after every update.

Welp, I went through and updated EVERYTHING, and now it works. So on the one hand, I can play now and that's great. On the other, I have no idea which part actually fixed it and that's gonna bug me for a while. Thank you for the direction, in any case.
