Loading screen forever
I start the game and it takes like 5-10 minutes to load into the first menu then i click play and it then takes me to a longer loading screen I haven't gotten passed. Is there anything i could do differently? I know my PC isn't ♥♥♥♥.

If you're on high dpi monitor that Windows upscale the UI. The game will upscale it again on top of the windows upscaling. This causes the "crop" on one corner of the game, preventing you from seeing anything else on the screen.

Go to the EXE file, and right click to Properties.
Under compatibility, tick Disable Full Screen Optimisation, then open change High DPI settings, tick both options.

Keep this in mind. If this happens again on your other games or apps.. This is most likely the issue. I've had this since my old days of playing legacy games, and I can always know if the DPI setting is the issue the first time I saw it here.

I didn't even get past the loading screen... It's pitch black for me

This didn't help because getting into the game isnt the problem now, its just a matter of time, it literally is 2-3 5 minute loading screens... I'll get into the game, it just depends on how long..
