Path of Exile 2: Game Wont Start or Freezes. (Workarounds)

Short answer

Suggested fix (unconfirmed): Update your graphics drivers and clear the game's shader cache. If that fails, completely reinstall the game.

The problem

anyone else having issues like this on loading screen? wen i start the game it gets stuck on the gears loading screen or will freeze after character selection. last time this happened i just verified the files and it fixed it. now is back and verifying files did nothing.
