I've posted about this twice now, and they have been moved to "resolved issues". THIS ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED. It is STILL happening.

My hardware specs are posted in the original post, the only difference now is I've upgraded to Windows 10 but am still experiencing the same crash. As one can clearly see my hardware is WELL beyond the capability of playing this game on max settings without any sort of performance hit. I'd like to see an official response, instead of constantly just dusting the problem under the rug.

The issue is that the game is crashing specifically in Gridanea and Limsa Lominsa, you only have to be in the town for a few minutes before it happens. This only happens when I am on DirectX 11, and I have absolutely no other crashes or quality issues whatsoever with the entire game. I should NOT have to play on DX9 just because of some bug that is getting completely ignored by the devs.
