I think the problem is in GameOverlayRenderer.dll.
Quick workaround: start steam, then rename GameOverlayRenderer.dll to something
else, then start games.
If GameOverlayRenderer.dll is enabled, games freezes with previously mentioned
exception.
GameOverlayRenderer.log says (last lines):
(...)

I think the exception occurs when steam tries to hook DirectInput8 calls.
Disabling Steam In-game community does not solve the problem.
