UPDATE: I uninstalled the game from Steam, and downloaded the 0.15.1 installer from Factorio.com. Installed and it runs fine. Steam must be involved in this issue.

It downloads and installs. I click Facto...

I'm running Win 10 x64, drivers are all up to date. Did a fresh uninstall/reinstall of Factorio, opted in to experimental branch. When I press "Play", it says "Running" next to Factorio in the Steam sidebar for about 15 seconds, and then "Running" disappears and nothing...
