Problem with Menu and Load Times

[JJMicromegas]

So the game actually runs fine on my system but anytime I go to a menu, or go to save a game, or in fact try to exit the game it stalls for about 30 seconds. This occurs even if I want to do simple things like changing difficulty settings or anything simple. Yet the actual game runs without being choppy at all on my system. I have also patched it to 1.11.3.

Can anyone help me or has anyone had this problem?

Thanks in advance.
