Elden ring starts slow loading/stutters and won't load map areas

Before the game played smoothly, kept it at medium graphical settings for better performance and everything played well, but when I downloaded the SOTET Dlc everything seemed to be running slower, when I enter the game now it just stops loading when it around 75% done, and even when it does low I suffer from magor stutters every 3 - 4 sec

I'm not sure what else I'm supposed to do now
