Hard crashing PC locks up

Please for the love of god disable multithreading when loading levels / teleporting anywhere.
That should prevent these crashes from occurring for now for the bulk of the users.
Crashing only occurs during map loading for me.
Incredibly annoying and need to hard reset multiple times during a play session.
I know that may be considered a band-aid solution, but it should help thousands of people trying to play the game.

this is a GGG engine issue.

So, your operating system is so fragile that allows to freeze entire PC from user mode without elevated privileges by abusing some design flaw? Great! I believe you're from IT, making such statements.
Hard crashes are 100% GGG's fault.

Path of Exile 2 is a faulty software.

GGG has abandoned its paying customers for 46 days and counting.

Any email sent to support has been left unanswered.

That's why, once again I ask anyone who encounters this problem to please give a negative review for Path of Exile 2 on Steam in a detailed and informative manner so that others will be made aware of the issue.
I cannot send/reply to direct messages because my in-game character has not finished Act 1.
What to do:
1)Write a short review about the hard crashes in notepad.
2)Copy and paste it to steam reviews, put up a negative review.
3)Copy and paste it to steam discussions, put it up there.
Any news? GGG return my simulacrum? or my 2 div to but entry?
Interesting. I finished the game(2 difficulties) around xmas and because of the constant crashes and It was apparent they are on leave and will not fix it I quit. Yesterday wanted to check and continue end-game but here we are again and I can't believe they did not fix such a serious issue by now.
This has much higher priority than any stupid balance changes or whatever they are doing.
But googling about POE freezes a month ago it seems like this has never been fixed in POE1 completely ...

Can't believe you can grab hundreds of millions and not fix this.

GGG if you are really clueless here are my amateur tips:
1. If you cannot reproduce the issue, buy 10pcs of different components, most people I see are mentioning x3d chips, but not limited to them.
2. Enable some logging in your engine
3. There you go ... within 1-2 days you should know what the stupid game is doing before hard locking the whole PC.
4. Ask some LLM how to fix that.
its getting to the point where I'm considering just getting a refund for this and going to play D4 or last epoch cause this has been an issue far longer then I thought it was and I'm tired of waiting to play the game.

that's not even trying to shit on the game because from what I have played I really enjoyed it but not being able to enjoy something I have paid for over a month is just really sad to see especially when they are pushing out updates and fixes that barely affect anyone or balance changes that would only be noticed by people with over 100 hour meta gaming the system while we cant even get past the log in screen in some cases is just really upsetting to see.

if this was just some small issue barely affecting anyone then I could understand the wait for a fix but after 850 pages long combined worth of people complaining about it there should be more communication from the devs on this matter and not just some 'we assure you we still know of the problem please wait longer'.
