First of all let me thank Scissorman (https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/profiles/76561198027713442) for the first solution and ThatsMeTyler (https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/profiles/76561198006743284/) for the second one.

I hope this guide will help you to make the game run.
Let me know in the comment section if this guide solved your problem.
Have fun!
Problem no. 1: the game doesn't start after pressing "play"
To solve it, follow these steps:

1) Uninstall the game
2) In the windows search bar, type "regedit" and run it

3) Find the registry entry of Obscure 2, located in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MRS\Obscure2

4) Delete the "MRS" folder and close regedit








5) Re-install the game and launch it
Problem no. 2: the antivirus marks "Obscure2", the launcher of the game, as a virus
If an antivirus like McAfee tells you there's a virus in the game launcher (the .exe file) of Obscure 2, just put it in the exceptions or exclusions list, so It won't be detected during scansions.

Here's a list of guides to do it with your antivirus:

- McAfee: http://smallbusiness.chron.com/add-exceptions-mcafee-69566.html
- Kaspersky: https://support.kaspersky.com/2695
- Windows Defender: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-exclude-files-and-folders-windows-defender-antivirus-scans
- Avast: http://www.getavast.net/support/managing-exceptions
- Norton : http://smallbusiness.chron.com/set-exclusions-norton-antivirus-61906.html

PS: Don't worry because there are no viruses hidden in the game's files, it's just an error! :)
