Game Crashes Upon Starting New Game

PC Singleplayer

Whenever I start a new game, it will go through the title sequence, and subsequently crash. After this, I can restart the game, and play on that character without any problems. I play the game on low graphics, and dont experience any performance issues.

Steps to Reproduce:
1-Start the game without any pre-existing saves or characters.
2-Click on “New Game”
3-Create a character.
4-Wait or skip through the title sequence.
5-Crash occurs.
