    I know this has been discussed multiple times already but I want to bring it up again as I still had no chance to actually play TSW5 since it came out. I can't speak for every PS5 player but the PS5 changed how I play games.

    Gaming for me has become a bit like watching Netflix, scrolling my PS5 starting up games until I either keep playing or go do something else. But whenever I boot up TSW it takes so long I start doing something else whilst waiting and forget I had booted up TSW.

    I tried again this weekend to play TSW to see if much had improved since launch and if it was worth buying new DLC but the boot up time reminds me that I will get punished with an even longer boot up time if I buy more DLC. Someday not so far in the future it will take 15 minutes to boot up TSW if you own all the content and if no changes are made.

    Why can't the game just boot up in a few seconds and show the route chooser and make me wait from then on when I finally decided IF I want to play one of the routes?

    Mine loads in at most a few (around 4) minutes. Series X.

    The initial load time is 100% dependent on how much dlcs you have installed

    Oh my; I did not realise it got that bad. This is very much an issue that needs to be fixed quickly!

    (For context, my laptop boots TSW5 in a few seconds).
