Ever since I got back on Cities:Skylines, the game has only loaded 75% on the loading screen, and then froze. The bird may be going in circles, but it isn't doing anything. I'm pretty sure I removed every mod that was said to be incompatible with the current version. Beyond that, I didn't change anything from one day to the next, but although it worked the first day, it suddenly won't stop loading the next. I've waited at least 10 minutes for this to load, to no avail. I recently bought two new DLCs: Universities and Plazas. Again, though, the game worked with them at first. Please help.

Game crashes at launch. Worked fine yesterday, first time playing after latest update, and I have only removed mods that were old or no longer compatible. I continue to unsubscribe from more mods - I only used a dozen or so. Still won't launch. None of my assets are on the broken list. All game files are installed. Tried running with "noWORKSHOP" and no luck. WTF.

These issues are pending I have received a notification, and they will respond as soon as possible.
 
I'm now also getting this issue.
I played it without problems on Wednesday
On Thursday it kept crashing while launching, something about the launcher failing to install updates. I did get it to work eventually, but then it was 23:30, and I couldn't play.
I thought today I can just run it, but now it crashes on launch, also with the "Failed to close GeforceNow runtime" message. I'm going to fiddle with it to see what I can do, but this is really disappointing. The Paradox launcher seems to be really unstable.

I have i7-7700K, 32GB RAM, and RTX 3060. And I am also using lowest possible settings without any shadow or anti aliasing and turned every graphhics settings possible. still I am facing performance issue. Now it is getting worst, As you can see in the screenshot I got null reference exception and I cant even continue. I have around 53k population. Please suggest me what can I do to fix this issue I just want performance not any quality. Thanks.
