Also: these crashes are spectacularly more annoying due to the fact that quick saving is supposed to be one of the ways to safeguard against crashes. When it crashes because you're saving, it's super frustrating. And the cherry on top is that when I go back into the game, it resets all of my settings and I have to go through first time set up again, such as checking the nudity box, and the brightness, and it resets all of the tutorials. Even when I then turn off tutorials, I still get them.
I had ZERO issues, ZERO crashes pre patch 2 so I didn’t even realize that having to deal with resetting all my settings was even new or unusual but YES this is just compounding the frustration with the crashes.
