kb/s dropping to 0 as soon as I open a game

Hi there, I'm very new to streaming and trying to sort out a number of problems, but the main one i keep running into is, for almost every game i run (with the exception of I think 3 games at the moment), my kb/s turns red and drops to zero slightly after i start running a game. In particular at the moment, I'm trying to stream Your Turn To Die, which should by no means be an intensive game, and I've been able to run games equal or more intensive, namely Ikenfell, and Yuppie Psycho (though YS only lasted about half an hour before the same issue cropped up). I've messed with the bit rate, resolution, frame rate, dynamic bit rate, my antivirus, I've given OBS higher priority, and at this point I'm just running out of things to try fixing it. Even trying to only have obs and the game running hasn't helped, and I've not been maxed out on memory or anything, so I don't feel like that can be it either, but at the end of the day, I don't know what I'm talking about, so maybe that is it. I don't even really care at this point if I can't fix it, I just want to know what's wrong. I've attached the log file. The most reacent stream listed, i ran without the game for about 30 seconds, booted up the game and promptly dropped to 0 kbps. I gave it some space to show that in the log before closing the game, letting my kb/s climb back to 2500 before repeating the process.
