MEGA THREAD - Urgent request for Paradox Dev team - DO NOT RELEASE ANYMORE DLC OR PATCHES UNLESS IT HAS THIS INCLUDED - (Fixed on page 3)

This is getting absolutely ridiculous. Just look at the Steam discussions, CK3 reviews, and forum bug reports - a vast number of players are experiencing hard locks during gameplay or even when trying to start the game. I know it’s supposedly caused by Windows - I've heard that excuse a thousand times by now - but Paradox must have some control over this.

Victoria 3 doesn’t hard lock. EU4 doesn’t hard lock. Stellaris doesn’t hard lock. HOI4 doesn't hard lock. So why, after the recent DLC, is CK3 the only one suffering from this issue?

There has to be some way to patch this.

This actually started since the 24H2 update, I remember dealing with this issue all the way back in December last year and I didn't know what was causing it, I thought my PC was dying until I saw many people complaining about the same issue.

I have had Stellaris and Helldivers hardlock too, it's not just this game.

Yeah it's not like Windows literally confirmed that with a recent update, but sure. it's just an excuse
Im honestly surprised at how much faith people have in Windows...
