Did something happen to the game?

I haven't touched this game since early access tbh but came back and was really enjoying it but after a few hours play I just get locked in whatever battle im in and that it. If I try to open another save it just sticks on the camp screen. If I win the battle screen goes black and that's it. It's done this every time even starting with completely new run. Editing to add I've even tried retreating from said battles to see if that would alter it but nope same thing. Seems like a couple hours of play just breaks the game each time and I am using no mods.

Well I have reinstalled and started a 3rd game to have the same thing happen again locked in battle ending screen this time in just a few minutes of starting. Is there some known issues with this or something or work around anyone knows?

my guess is you startet it with "Play Wartales" (what makes it use DX) and fullscreen?
the engine get strange changes with every other odd patch it seems. mosttimes the game even asks again how you want to start the game after teh bigger patches, even when you nailed your options with "dont ask again"
DX start for example can produce "out of memory pages" errors coupled with an error logged that claims to have problems with HX Tools Directory.

so you ever need to juggle and experiment what are the best conditions with the actual game build.
for me its "Start Wartales with Open GL" together with boarderless at the moment. killed all problems i got after the last patch.

a last word why i mentationed boarderless on top, when i just used Open GL and stayed at fullscreen, my game CTD after fights and in lootscreens with "programm dont respond" error windows. only useing boarderless got rid of this last problem for me.
