@puzzlezaddict Hello, I did everything you said and started a new save file and now its even worse :'( lol now the game doesn't even want to load to the Map to choose a household. Im giving up ☹️ could be my RAM that's only 8gb that's what BluebellFlora said on twitter, hopefully they roll out a fix, I also couldn't even see the water options to swim in ocean or fish. And so many more issues that overall think its RAM issue but so sad anyway lol

@Vibama I'm sorry to hear that. I don't think 8 GB RAM is the issue itself; it may be that overloaded saves don't run well, or the game doesn't run well when other apps are open in the background and using a lot of memory. But based on how much RAM a new save uses for me, I wouldn't expect memory to be the limiting factor alone. Restarting your computer before playing would help free up as much memory as possible, if you wanted to test, and you could see the system and game RAM use in real time in the Activity Monitor.
The missing open water options is a known issue that affects everyone, as far as I can tell. It has its own thread:
But if you're not interested in trying anymore, I understand.
