Super Long Loading Times and missing textures despite good pc

Hello.
Im having a problem with very long loading times as well as textures
not being loaded properly. Sometimes i have to wait for 30-40 seconds
in loading screen and even after its loaded, i dont see monsters
instantly, my skills dont show any animation. I was hoping you guys could
help me resolve this issue. I have exactly same PC as i had for past
5-6 years, yet i never experienced such issues. Tried reinstalling
whole game, verifying integrity of files, running game without steam,
lowering graphics settings to lowest or even potato mode, changing
vulkan to dx. My PC is relatively good (i think), i never had any fps
drops, and usually loading never took more than 2-3 seconds.
CPU: Intel Core i7-9700K
MoBo: Gigabyte Z390 GAMING X
RAM: Patriot Viper DDR4 16GB (2x8GB) 3733MHz CL17
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Gaming OC 8GB
Disk: Adata XPG SX8200 PRO M.2 NVMe PCIe 512GB (this is also the disk
i have PoE installed on)

I can provide more info if needed. Also i recorded small movies about
some of the issues, link below:

https://streamable.com/wvb97x - DirectX 11
Also some other video from Vulkan after like 1 minute spent on map:

Worth mentioning that im also playing pretty heavy game called Lost Ark on Highest possible settings without any issues on stable 144FPS.
I just have no idea what am i missing, maybe its something obvious maybe not.
Wish you guys could maybe suggest something?
Regards

Loading time today is horrible.
Please help us fix this. I am also having this issue. As I am sure many others are.
Welcome to POE 1 reality. I have a PC a bit better than yours. Everything started for me in the mid-Ancestor. Loading times are absurd [ nvme ssd + 64 gb ram on board ], and some areas are not fully loaded texture wise ( especially Sirus fight . I'm often dying to attacks, I'm not even seeing).
What changed? No clue. After all, I was able to play well for the half of the last league. Right now, everything nonstop broken. Maybe "performance changes to solve the issues" did that to us.
I'm also getting very long load times on a NVME SSD. I haven't played for a few leagues but the last time I played I was on a slower sata 3 SSD and had quicker load times (3-5s) whereas now I'm getting anywhere from 5-25s load times. Checked my SSD health and it's ok. I use the vulkan renderer
I went to start a map...

I met a girl.
We begin dating.
We went to college.
We got engaged.
She got pregnant.
We finish college.
Our son was born.
We got a job.
We married.
We bought our first house together.
I bought my first car.
We made a lot of family trips.

Yesterday at night my son got inside my old room and found out my pc.
He asked me what was on the screen...

I said, It's the map that I started before meting your mother.

IT WAS STILL LOADING!

overeacting? I gotta say that's the felling I'm getting with those long loading screens

Oh god... I wonder if the revenue from supporter packs are put to good use.
Can't even trade with other players with these insane loading times.
Bump, I have the same issue.
