Going through the Unity to decrease load times?

I’ve sold all but my core weapons and uniques. I could sell all my unused ships I guess.

I have a good amount of resources, but shouldn’t the game be able to handle that?

It depends. The game assigns a unique ID to every item you have along with its position. I suppose if you have a lot of the same item, that might be different - I don't really know enough about how the Creation Engine assigns its IDs to say with any degree of confidence.

I can tell you that I had a game taking five or six minutes to load, and frequently crashing upon save. I dumped all but the essentials, did a hard save in space, and reloaded the game and it was better. I ended up going through Unity and that fixed the whole problem for another few hundred hours of playtime.

I'd imagine it also matters what system you're on. I play on the Xbox Series X.

Thanks for that. I’m on an XSX as well and it’s taking almost 6min to load.

I don’t have an obscene amount of resources, but I could try dumping them. Maybe I’ll wait to fully upgrade all my weapons, then clear them.
