    Unfortunately the error log you posted is in every log of mine so there's nothing to pinpoint why you game is crashing.
    The next line I have is
    ( 35) Assert mvMovieBackbuffer::mvMovieBackbuffer : unable to open bink handle to file data/interface/video/LogoFocus.bik

    That's because I took the videos out to speed up loading.
    The next lines you should of got was

    [10:05:44] LIVE lavAvatarManager.cpp ( 591) Error [lavAvatarManager] AvatarSetDescription : unknown avatar

    and then the map slots start loading.

    I'd try seeing if checking the game files through steam might help.
    Also try renaming the Cities XXL folder in C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\focus home interactive and see what happens when XXL builds a new folder and you start a fresh game.
