This is happening to me as well. The game initially froze as soon as Vesemir and I killed the first set of Ghouls under the tree. I rebooted as it locked the entire PC up. Once I rebooted I got past the part of looting them all of their remains and I picked up the Crystal Crow skull. Went to check my inventory and it locked up. I ALT-Tabbed out. Killed the game and tried it 4 more times. It freezes every time I open the inventory. The last time I was able to hit the space bar three times for the tutorial to tell me about the tabs at the top of the inventory..it froze there and I came here to report. I just wanted to let you all know. Fantastic and beautifully smooth so far right up to that point. I'll check back often for a workaround. Thanks for your time.Luck and Loot, (Mereinid)*EDIT 001* I reloaded to the game where I was still under the tree, I didn't check my inventory then I waited until I got to the town. At the tavern I checked my inventory then. Worked fine. Took some quests, & went down the river and killed some Drowners and pillaged some items along the way. Went to a small village SE of the White Orchard. Had a Female ghost flying around a well. I found a journal in one of the buildings. Opened my inventory and double clicked on the journal and it froze.I was playing border-less window, one step down from Full-screen with Hardware Mouse enabled. I will play again tomorrow. (Mereinid)
