I just downloaded the game excited to play but from the very beginning, the game has struggled to load into the actual game itself. I tried loading other saves and even starting a new game but every single time the cutscene before I load into the game plays I end up getting stuck on a black screen with the loading icon on the side spinning.

I verified the game on GOG the first time and that helped me load into a new game but now that I closed the game and came back to it I have the same issue again.

Nothing works I have uninstalled and installed the game again, ran it on DX11, and tried other saves but nothing works and now that has ruined the game for me.
I also have not added any mods or changed any of the settings.

Has anyone had this issue before or know how to fix it?

Having the same issue.
Brand new gaming PC. No mods. Tried on all low settings. Same thing happens if i try to load an old cross save from when i played it on PS5 as well.
Tried both the DX11 and DX12 versions.

Arnastan902 replied to a different post with a solution that worked for me.
Go into the folder where the game is installed and run Redlauncher directly from there. Once i did that it worked first time. Also didn't need to worry about having low settings or anything. Must be some sort of bug between GOG Galaxy and Redlauncher when it is opened through GOG.

Thank you it seems like its definitely an issue through GOG Galaxy at the moment.
