Laggy Experience
Hey there,
I understand the laggy UI is a pretty common issue (especially on laptops) but the topics I found regarding this were ~2 years old, so I thought I'd try here. My laptop isn't high-end but it usually runs games just fine, but I rarely experience such long loading times and UI lagging. Any help would be appreciated!
My steam no. is 76561198852274000 and my CPU specs are:

No, it's just the game loading, the game has to load every asset before it reaches the main menu.
I'm not sure why it takes so long for you. I just tried it on my computer and got 50 seconds when launching from an SSD and 72 Seconds when launching from an HDD. Does that sound much different from what you get?
You may get better loading times on minimum video settings.
Typically the speed of your hard drive will determine the length of loading the game
