I‘m having the same problem, with the rainbow loading circle, where the game freezes every 30 seconds or so and I can’t do anything except move my mouse - not even adjust my volume or force quit. The game resumes after about 30 seconds to a minute. The game runs pretty smoothly except for this issue, which is sad because this issue makes the game almost unplayable. But other than that, everything’s pretty smooth! Still waiting on two new expansions I bought to get the entitlement, but I bought them like the day before release last week. Also, the exchange isn’t working for me :/ but those aside, I‘m most concerned about the game itself running. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's unplayable for me...freezes every 15 or so seconds. Can hardly get any gameplay in. I was so excited for this release, and i'm a bit bummed. Hopefully a solution/ fix is on the way!
