Game crashes on boot (STEAM), possible Easy Anti Cheat bug?

Hello, I'm having a problem where the game crashes on boot. It will load the RS2 launcher, the game will open (it will be a black box), then it will close. I believe it may have something to do with Easy Anti Cheat although I get no EAC message, because the files for EAC in the RS2 files aren't installed. However, whenever I try to install them using the EAC installer, it simply won't add the file, it will say it has but it hasn't.
I have tried re-installing, validating multiple times, but to no avail.
Side note: It may also have something to do with when I was mucking around with Arma modding, (DAYZ mod and such). I remember something about deleting certain Easy Anti Cheat files for some specific purpose, but can't remember.
Just can't seem to get the EAC file downloaded into RS2 now.
If anyone could help, that would be appreciated.
Cheers.
