- Details: This started after I updated the game before I din’t have any issues and could play for hours. Now when loading a save file the game freezes after a few minutes and I can’t do anything. I have to shutdown my computer or switch apps and force quit the game.

Same is happening to me but I play on PC. Before the October update my game was working fine. Never froze.

I have the same issue as well. The game freezes every few minutes and I always have to save the game then the game will work again. Wasn’t like this before the update.
