Abysmal Xbox Series X Load Times

So the next gen consoles are beyond braggadocios about their "nonexistent load times". I beg to differ. First planet - died to the nasty frog monster thing. JUST to respawn to the same area after death - load times greater than 60 seconds, consistently.

This is NOT what was advertised. I can play the same game, at higher fidelity, on my PC and actually GET near zero to nonexistent load times and this is while I have dozens of other processes running in the background. Now here we have a device that is designed to do one thing - play games - and it does it so much less efficiently. How is this possible?

I just wanted something different - be able to kick back on the big screen w/ surround sound. I shouldn't have a vastly superior experience wearing headphones and a 27" screen... especially when I just dropped 500 on a system that was supposed to be all about the gaming experience. I now have zero desire to play this game if I have to take a pee break every time I die.

If I see this in other games, this console will hit Ebay shortly.

    What this gentleman is trying to say is that Fallen Order has abnormally long loading times on the xbox series S/X. Installed on the internal SSD, reloading after getting killed by one of the first enemies in a relatively small zone takes over a minute, despite other games showing vast loading times improvements.

    If you could find the cause of this and fix this, that would be nice, thanks.
