Is the save file very big, perhaps? If so that's understandable.

Once loaded can you play okay?
 
Since yesterday my group has a general probelm with MP games not loading any more/taking forever. We waited until everyone was loaded in one time, just to see if it'd work and we got a desynch after the first week. Doesn't matter if it's a fresh game or our old saves that worked 3 days ago. The problems started yesterday and we're in Germany, if that's useful for you.
Each of us tried to host to make sure it is not just one of us having problems. It is not our general network connections, as everything else works just fine.

Is the map loading pure p2p or is there a paradox server in the middle that could have trouble?

Neither; this game uses an external MP service called Nakama.

As do all our games after CK2 now. I see you have Stellaris; in there opt into the Cross Store MP option (which also uses NAkama).Do you also get this problem there?

It seems that the problem has cleared up on its own for us, whatever the cause. We tried both Stellaris and Victoria 3 and both worked as before the loading problems. Thanks for the quick answer though :)
Cheers!
