Moved my PC to another space and the only change is that I don't currently have the old TV I was using as a second monitor hooked up to my PC. Was playing the game perfectly fine earlier that same day but once I got everything set-up again the game would crash on launch if I had it on DX11 mode. Even though it was my secondary monitor windows considered it my primary monitor in its settings, so I'm suspicious that this change might have something to do with the cause. I tried a couple of the other fixes I saw online and here on the forums including switching to DX9 mode and messing around with my display settings, doing a full reinstall of the game and rolling back video drivers but nothing has worked so far. Game runs mostly fine in DX9 mode but I also get random crashes and glitches (like the floor not properly loading in a Shadowbringers ex trial and having to look below the arena to see AoE markers) so I want to get the whole DX11 thing figured out sooner than later. Gonna be able to get my TV setup again soon so I'll update here if that fixes it, but any ideas I can try in the meantime that don't involve reinstalling the game again would be appreciated. I'll still be browsing around and trying stuff on my too.
For those who are curious about hardware specs my CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600 and my GPU is an Nvidia GTX 1660 Super. I'm also running Windows 10. My main monitor is some generic 60hz 1080p monitor from AOC and the TV I was using was an old LG flatscreen. Don't remember the specs on the TV exactly aside from it probably being 30hz refresh rate, and the native resolution was a weird number a little lower than 1920x1080, but still way above 1600x900
Here's how the crash looks too, the fact that it looks like it's trying to start the game in a small window despite it being set to borderless windowed is another reason I'm thinking this might be related to my displays somehow (like maybe it's trying to open the game on a monitor that doesn't exist anymore and that's causing some problem with how DirectX handles things, although this might not be the case since it still happened after I tried a couple more times after setting the game to windowed and fullscreen).
