As far as it concerns my specific case, I'm afraid to report that the game still gets stuck randomly, with its infinite loading bug.
No real differences with the Steam version of TNO unfortunately.

Issue:
Play the game for a short period of time until you die and/or load a cinematic. (at the end of a level for example)
Loading screen is now a black screen with a white logo at the bottom left, not animated.

Now your game is crash (freeze) OR will sometime resume after a long period of time. Rise and repeat each time the game must load.


Problem occur with nvidia card and ATI, fullscreen / windowed, Vsync ON or OFF, driver Vsync ON or OFF, connsole command to only use one core also used without good result.

Everything listed on internet, steam, gog forum, PC gamingwiki, gog support, have been tested.

Only thing left for me is Id5 tweaker.

I do use a AMD CPU (and not GPU). Rysen 5 3550@3,6ghz 16go ram 1650 GTX, SSD.

After extensive testing and trying various tweaks I found that compressed Textures will Crash my game after Cut scenes. I have done other things during my testing but overall this game doesn't tax my GPU (6900xt). I can see my GPU idle down a lot during play and I cant get the game to work properly at all. It is defiantly a Broken Game witch is sad because so far i enjoy the story quite a lot. I am going to keep messing with it but just wanted to let anyone who is having problems know that compressed textures will crash the game.
