I've ran multiple searches in the forums so I hopefully am not posting something that has already been discussed, if so I do apologise.
I recently built a new computer and upon installing this game, the loading time is extraordinarily long (at game launch not in-game loading at port/launching boat/etc.). By extraordinarily long I mean a minimum of 10 minutes loading time, sometimes up to 15. Given that my former laptop (i7 6th gen, GTX 1060) could load this in about 20-30 seconds, I cannot imagine what on earth is making my new desktop load this in 10-15 minutes. The only thing I can speculate is causing this is a potential incompatibility but I'm hoping someone can shed some light. I have also added TLOPO as exceptions on both my antivirus and antimalware to no success, and I should mention that the game is not getting outright blocked at any point, just taking this phenomenal amount of time to finally load (with numerous 'not responding' messages along the way).
Specs for if they're helpful:
CPU: AMD Threadripper 2950x
GPU: NVidia RTX 2080 super
SSD: Samsung 970 EVO
OS: Windows 10 Home
Antivirus: Bitdefender
Antimalware: Malwarebytes
Thanks for your help,
