It's similar to my previous Final Fantasy X-2 bug report which already resolved now.

But I think I have the current workaround for this bug.

By changing the Graphic Renderer to Vulkan or Software; PCSX2 didn't shutdown & the game continue properly.

So I guess it has something to do with the Metal renderer?

New update after nearly two months, I already finished the game long time ago before the fixes with Software mode for the workaround.

Before, the game has several sudden PCSX2 shutdowns because of the white screen just like I've mentioned above & some suddenly shutting down just walking into another area with no white screens at all.

For curiosity, I've started new game recently & get into the cut-scene above where the first white screen shutting down occurs.

I am happy to say the PCSX2 updates has finally fixed/resolve the problem, the screen goes smoothly like nothing happens, so I assume that too for the rest of the game.

Thank you for reading & sorry for the late update.
