So... a lot of people here seem to have a problem with their cursor flickering... I have that too, but it's more serious. Whenever I move the cursor the entire game grinds to a halt, as if it was paused. All visual activity stops, whether it's menu animations or the actual gameplay. The cursor itself actually behaves smoothly while this happens. The moment I stop moving my mouse everything goes back to normal. This makes the game unplayable. I tried playing around with both compatibility settings and tools.exe to no avail. Any idea what is going on here?

My specs:
CPU: I7-6700HQ
GPU: GTX 960M / Intel HD graphics 530
Ram: 8GB
System: Windows 10 64-bit

Run the game on Linux under Wine! I just started playing on Fedora 31 KDE spin and it runs smooth, no issues. And use the troubleshooter program in the tools folder to get a higher resolution, but you'll need to experiment, because not all resolutions work, it's the only way, the in-game options won't let me change that.
