Amnesia won't open - ThePhrygian - 11-13-2014

I just got Amnesia: The Dark Descent about 2 weeks ago. Game ran fine and everything. Steam went through an update today. When it finished, Amnesia won't open no matter what I do.
I tried verifying the integrity of the game cache, updating my drivers, reinstalling the game, etc. Pretty much everything.

It looks like you're trying to start a custom story. Maybe you've tried to set up the development environment, but it fails to directly load your story on startup?

To play the main game again:

1. Reinstall game or do a file integrity check via Steam (Problem I)
2. Check Problem A3 on how to reset game settings
