New Belle update bug

[chucklefish1]

i don't know if its just me that has experienced this but ever since i entered the new belle realm my whole game has become incredibly laggy and slow its basically unplayable now which is annoying as i was really looking forward to this new update i've tried everything to fix it but i'm at a loss any suggestions

Yeah I just unlocked her area, and as soon as I walked into the library my game completely lagged out

I just removed furniture from my valley, it's because there is so much data, seems to help.

Is that why my game has suddenly started acting up?? This is the first time it’s ever had the problems I’ve heard others bring up and it is extremely frustrating. Finally get new quests and I get so frustrated, I don’t even wanna play.

**UPDATE** Just started playing and it WAS raining so thought I’d try again to harvest and plant. Not sure if it was a game update or that my Steam Deck also had a system update this morning, but I can hold down the button and it keeps on harvesting and/or planting without the glitches I was getting in between each action. Yayz! (Unfornately, by the time I had planted everything it naturally stopped raining) See ya, got some watering to do!

The game has been laggy for many updates. Atleast, in the house when decorating.
Now it's in Belle's realm and outside if you wear the hat from her realm.

It has become absolutely ridiculous. Feel like it's more than just "data" in the moment.


Edit: discovered animals appearing in the void outside my "house"
