My sims 4 game takes forever to load

Hi. So my sims 4 game takes like 4 hours to load. When I get to the first loading screen, it freezes and then takes hours. I have mods and cc and I’ve updated them all and I tried removing them all but it is still taking forever. I’ve tried repairing and uninstalling and reinstalling but it didn’t work. I’ve tried contacting ea and they haven’t gotten back to me in weeks. Any help is appreciated.

    It’s a USB external solid slate drive. On the Mac itself it says I have like 2gb left. I got my game to launch. So now it just takes forever to load. It’s probably the amount of cc and mods I have. It’s over 20,000 files in my mods folder.

    2GB is absolutely not enough space and will be the reason for the lagging. This is because some of the internal storage is used for virtual memory. Free up to at least 10GB and it should help.

    I freed up 150gb and it still doesn’t load. I don’t know what to do anymore. 😞

    Yes when I take all the mods out it loads within 10 seconds but I can’t play without mods because the game is just boring to me. ;/
