Stellaris doesn't load into the game

[A wise old Chinese man]

i had the launcher-v2.sqlite problem but i think i fixed it. After that i tried to start the game it went to the loading screen but it doesn't load anywhere. Help would be appreciated.

if first time playing: try running steam/the game as administrator. it may also just take a while to start first time so just let it run for a few minutes while you do some chore or w/e. you also just try using the game .exe directly.

if used mods before: make sure they are all properly uninstalled and don't have any left over files. also verify game files.

tried both of them same problem. And i uninstalled all my mods

The most common way to fix the crappy launcher is to not use it and either launch the game directly or use the Irony mod manager.

Tried just starting stellaris alone, it didn't work

Getting the same issue as well, even tried reinstalling the game. No mods at all and was working last I played.

Choose borderless fullscreen or windowed mode in Game Settings in the Launcher. If that doesn't work, go to support.paradoxplaza.com and open a ticket.

Hope this helps!

I got it working by putting the game on fullscreen. I have no clue why it worked

probably related to window's fullscreen optimization thing

Tried full-screen as well
Worked fine after that.
Thanks!
