Recently I've been getting FPS drops regardless of where I am in the game. I've tried to lower graphical settings but the issue still persists. I've already made sure the game is running off my NVIDIA gfx card instead of the integrated one too. The best performance I've had was the day after the last maintenance where everything ran smoothly at max graphics. Now its been chugging.

This is the error message I get whenever I try to start the game. I see the .dll files are there in the pso2 folder. I've tried to re-download dx9. I've also updated my gfx driver. The game has been working for the past few weeks. I just got this error about 6hrs since I've last played it.

Does anyone else have this issue??

I got the issue in the image below whenever I click Play on the Microsoft store after installing the initial 11gb.
