I’m playing Elden Ring and reached the Queen’s Bed area in the Ashen Capital. When I went through the boss fog gate, the game crashed and showed a black screen. After that, I exited and reinstalled the game, but now it won’t even launch. Has anyone experienced this or knows how to fix it?

Sounds like the crash after the boss fog might have corrupted some game files, which can happen sometimes. Since you already reinstalled and it still won’t launch, I’d recommend checking if your system has any leftover files or mods that might interfere. Also, verify the game files through your platform if possible to make sure everything is intact.
Did you reinstall the game completely or just verified files? Sometimes a full clean uninstall (removing all saved and leftover files) and then a fresh reinstall helps. Also, check if your device’s GPU drivers and OS are up to date because outdated drivers can cause launch issues after a crash.
Sometimes after a crash like that, the game saves can get messed up and prevent launching. Try deleting your save data or moving it somewhere else to see if the game launches fresh. If that works, you can try to recover your save or start fresh if needed.
