Y'all play on ten year old computers and wonder why the game loads slowly

The devs must only have NVMe SSD drives on their machines because CK3 loads slow as hell on everything except an NVMe and loads on a NVMe at the same speed as everything else does on HDD. So horridly optimised. Oh yeah and half the mods crash because of this issue too if you attempt to load from a save instead of relaunching the engine. BTW installing it on a SATA SSD isn't good enough, it still loads very slow on SSDs in SATA. It also still takes 5 minutes on V-NAND. You have to install it on a NVMe drive for it to not take forever to load. <_<

still better than launching Vic 3

Loading simulator

You need to get it on an SSD. I put it on my SSD after having had to wait for litteraly up to 10 mins and now it loads in like 30 secs.

literally currently scrolling through community due to how long load time is for my multiplayer match

It do be like that tho

we can't all afford ssd...

true

So it's not just me that has to wait an eternity for this game to load
