Same issue, started right at the first boss after getting to the Stormfall town. Game suddenly starting having supremely unplayable levels of lag, was getting solid 90+fps prior.
I noticed that if I don't move my mouse that the FPS is steady- as SOON as I move my mouse at all the game totally freezes until I stop moving, then it catches back up. It's incredibly stuttery and jarring and really unpleasant. I will try to restarting but want to report it anyway as it'd surely be nice to not have to constantly restart and such. Restarting did fix it, and swapping to borderless windowed hasn't had it happen again, yet.
