I have the exact same problem. If i run the game my PC kinda softlocks, just like in the video. I tried everything, running the repair wizard and deleting the datas in the documents folder. The only thing seeming to work is running in windowed mode, like he said. The only downside is, that it then lacks fps.
Maybe the whole issue is because i run the game on windows XP. Can anyone clarifiy what the problem is and how to fix it, because I bought the game like a week ago and I started to enjoy playing it.
