Here are my specs: i5 4460, 12gb ddr3 ram, gtx 1060 3gb, 525gb ssd, 1tb hdd, 450 watt psu, lga 1150 motherboard, Noctua low profile CPU cooler.

I just got Final Fantasy 15 PC version on a Steam sale but it won't start properly. Whenever I launch the game it just shows a black screen. However, I can move the mouse around and here sounds from it moving in-game just nothing shows up on screen. I can't even exit the game cause of the black screen so I have to restart my PC. I can run all my other games fine. Is my processor to weak? If so what other CPU should I get? I thought it would meet the minimum requirements at least.

According to the minimum recs you should be within a decent margin to atleast get it running.

Reinstall it again, might have gotten corrupted?
Have you updated the drivers for your Nvidia card?

I reinstalled FF15 cause after the first time the game vanished from my Steam library for some reason might have been due to a cluttered SSD. I freed up some space and am pretty sure I have all the latest drivers. I am on Windows 10 and don't need any updates or anything. Don't know what to do. Might return the game since I haven't played it yet.
 
Yeah I think I will. When I say vanished I mean it got uninstalled somehow. It was still in my games folder but Steam showed it was uninstalled and won't play so i had to reinstall 75 gb of it. I am gonna wait with that game I think.
