POE 2 Complete PC Freeze while loading screen

They need to either communicate with players or start opening up options for refunds. I can't play the game. I haven't been able to play the game for a month. I paid for a game, a game that I can at least run for 30m without crashing my entire system. Bugs were expected, but at the bare minimum I expect a product that does not actively compromise my hardware. This is totally absurd.
Just encountered the loading screen of death. I recently reinstalled 24H2 after rolling it back and initially had no issues, but the crashing has now returned. I really don't want to be on an old OS version. Please fix and COMMUNICATE with us.

System
RTX 4090 (latest game-ready driver)
Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Win 11 24H2

I got denied by steam, but make sure you open a support ticket with them. I asked for them directly for a refund, it's been 2 month, can't even play the game. Every tickets matters. (I guess, but at this point, they clearly just ignoring it and keeping the money).
Are they fixing this issue? I mean they mentioned this 0 I MEAN ZERO times during the patch release with DM. It is a horrible bug and it makes the game unplayable. I have to uncheck "multithreading" every time before entering a new map. not fun.
Wish I could refund... using 3rd party software or fiddling every time I play pisses me off.
Im just tired of the extra fckin around with all the options and third party tools to make a game work
Ignoring the Community, what can possibly happen ...
After some weeks where i stopped playing because of crashing i started the game hopefully. But then... first loading screen and i think you know what have happened. Freeze and crash :(
I´ll try again in a month or so, i´m still hoping they´ll fix this
I will honestly never play this game again in my life, nor any other possible GGG product, a game that actively fries players' hardware, they should STOP any content production and focus every damn dev on this problem, but no, they don't care, no answer at all, nothing.

Could there possibly be a higher priority problem than this for them to be focused on? I doubt it. They are probably just working to ensure the goals of the new daddy Tencent.

They said they were expecting 1 million players in Early Access, how could they not expect that the devs/support they had wouldn't be able to handle it? Too much self-confidence or simply incompetence and poor management of priorities? Only the employees will know and I won't be here to see it.

Good luck to you players, I didn't play POE1 and I have no interest in continuing to play POE2, but I really feel sad for POE1 veterans who are suffering with this bug and without a response from the company they worshipped for like 10 years, damn, that must hurt.
