Hi

Recently bought the game.
1.) I run the game from Steam, the launcher window starts
2.) I've clicked the install EAC, which generates C:\Program Files (x86)\EasyAntiCheat_EOS folder as expected
3.) I click Play DirectX xx, running either one generates EasyAntiCheat_EOS.sys to above mentioned folder as expected
4.) Easy Anti-Cheat Service (EOS) (32 bit) appears into Task Manager
5.) Mortal Online 2 exe appears in Task Manager, peaks at 8% CPU ~480mb mem for ~15 seconds and then does absolutely nothing

I've tried setting Mortal2Online2.exe, MortalOnline2Launcher.exe, EasyAntiCheat_EOS.exe, MortalOnline2-Win64-Shipping.exe to Run As Administrator
UAC is set to minimum
No anti virus, no quarantine relevant actions
Firewall exceptions made to all exes
All files verified
EAC redownloaded and reinstalled
sfc /scannow with no errors
VC_redist.x86.exe & VC_redist.x64.exe & dxwebsetup without errors
game is installed in e: (could be an issue?)
Win10 10.0.19043 Build 19043 - all up2date
Specs beyond roof

What do?
