This sounds very much like a situation where the base system and packages are out seriously of sync AND your user is et up with a default shell from packages (I am guessing bash). The solution would likely be to log in as root, run pkg_add -D snap -u to get the latest snapshot packages, then try to log in as your regular user. -- Peter N. M.
