Game mechanics question

[MizMeow1]

Let me just say up front that I'm not anywhere close to a computer expert, so maybe there is any answer that I'm aware of.

First, the game is very slow to load. I mean very slow. So slow that I find myself if Windows has stopped working. Windows has stopped working twice. I assumed that it was because I hadn't restarted the compute for awhile. However, even after restart, it takes a long time to load. Then, once I check my profile, it takes a long time to load that (although not as long as the game loading itself). This is all very frustrating, but not the main reason for my question.

Once the game does load, it is very wacky. It lags and then suddenly jumps. If I just barely move the mouse, in game, the mouse jumps all over the place. This last for about five minutes and, then, the game seems to fun just fine. I tend to get motion sick when playing many games. I have this issue with this game, at times. although once the game is running smoothly, I've learned to adjust to the game. However, those first several minutes of the game, I'm just this side of vomiting with the way it lags and then jumps. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it's movement. Is there something in the options (or anything else) that I can do to fix this issue? I had initially downloaded the free Prologue and had zero issues with it. It loaded just fine, unlike the full game. And, I never had any of this lagging/jumping with it. Any suggestions?? Thanks!

Hello!
In the future, we plan to put in the game an option to disable swaying while walking our character. We want to introduce it mainly because of the players with the problem of motion sickness :) As for the long loading time of the game, its content differs from that in the prologue. This is probably why the game is stuttering when loading. Maybe you have a lot of tabs open in your internet browser or you have other programs running in the background?

Best!

Thank you for the reply. And, thank you for planning on adding options to help those of us with motion sickness. I *really* do appreciate that! As for the stuttering, no, I don't have too many programs running. I *never* have a browser open when running a big game like this. The only time I might leave a browser open when turning on a game is if the game is an idle game that I'm only going to have running for a few minutes to do the necessary leveling up on it. Also, whenever I run this game or any other big game like this one, I go into task manager and close any programs that I know I don't need to run. I've already turned off many programs that I don't use at all or just rarely from starting automatically running in the background when Windows starts. I don't understand either that if the stuttering was happening because too many programs were open, then why would it stutter and lag so much at the begging of the game and then start working fine after 5-10 minutes of the game running? Nothing on the computer has changed during that time. I"m so confused. LOL
