Animations not displaying at times

[Interitus]

First, thank you for the beautiful work.

I downloaded the game today, and I'm having display issues. Sometimes the animations stop. I can hear the sounds happening, but nothing changes on screen. If I wait long enough (30 seconds - 1 min) the animation shows, but everything from that point on is heavily delayed. Even dragging the mouse over the Inventory or Menu does nothing. The only thing that I can do is use the task manager to end the process and reload the game.

Have you tried turning off hardware acceleration?
