Never ending loading screen.

[JJ, Professional Fool]

After the start screen I press any button to see a small sonic spinning forever in my corner screen.

Ive played this game for 30 mins, and did the game up to 2-2. And now it wont load. Im reading this info about DRM and how this game will die. Should I refund now?

Don't believe this DRM DEATH ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, Steam will die too. AND ALL STEAM GAMES WILL. ALL GAMES WILL DIE. It's obivious. But you can be sure DRM won't randomly die. Also, it's probably a bug, not DRM. For me it's fine, that's why. If it would have been the death of DRM servers, the game would have been broken for everyone.

Go ahead. If it doesn't work, that's one reason to refund it.

It's not a reason, especially in a game that has alot of people who can help. Stop thinking that the refund is the only way.

Restart your computer. (I had this glitch, but this somehow fixed it.)
If that doesn't work, try this:

He is part of a major protest movement against this game. and was hoping OP would join the boycott.

You mean, Denuvohaters? The ones that believed Voksi? Fun fact, i tried the pirate version by myself to see is it faster then the Steam one, and it was far slower, lagger and slowed down in many menus. In Steam version everything worked perfectly. HM?

Did you change your Steam password after that by any chance? The bypass could have had a malicious SteamAPI client.
My copy of Sonic Mania takes quite a bit of abuse provided I run it on a SSE2-enabled machine (Retro engine limitation, applies to Sonic CD Steam too).

The bypass didn't, and even if it would, are you really thinking i didn't taskkilled the whole Steam and didn't used Sandboxie when trying it?

I've had this issue once, it's fine now though. It was also on my first run.
