Fallout 4 stuck loading after pressing continue, past the main menu

Ive been having an issue with my fallout 4 where it will completely refuse to load my Fallout 4 save. It doesn't say the save is corrupted, the game boots and I didnt play with mods installed. What happens when i load my file is that I will either 1. Hear the high pitched sound of the game crashing, or 2. It will begin loading into my save from the continue screen before being stuck on the Vault Dwellers Survival Guide loading screen. Ive tried power cycling, clearing cache, and deleting and reinstalling my game to no avail

Hello KirbyClutch! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

If you start a new game, does it work fine?

I purchased a digital copy last week, however, I cannot get past the main menu after you press A to continue. The game just stays on the main menu. Help?

Just had a weird experience. After 2+ hours playing, could not save at all, either. Quit out to root menu and restarted the game, but it's not been able to load the game menu since. Just keeps waiting after having "pressed any button to continue".

Even after having unplugged the system, still no luck. I've reinstalled the game to no avail. Game is stuck on "Please wait"

Its just like Fallout 3. If you have none of the DLC then you go back to the main menu and you can open up your last save. But if you do have DLC then it just continues into that.

None of the DLCs continue after the end of the main quest.

If you mean that the game gets stuck loading before the main menu appears, then I also experience the same thing. The only thing that I've seemed to get it to forward me into the game is pressing the Xbox Home button so the Xbox Guide appears, then simply
press B and the game finishes loading up. I hope this helps.
