Ni no Kuni: WotWW [NPUB30932] Freezes after ship cutscene

Just as an update for anyone curious about this, I removed the game and reinstalled the disc version. I was using the PSN version when I got this error.

Unfortunately now my game is crashing after the Candlabracadabra fight.

Getting a Fatal Error
Unhandled Win32 exception 0xC0000005
etc etc
Module name: VCRUNTIME140.dll

I have all of the Visual Studio runtimes installed.
