On some systems, the game can exhibit stutters at regular intervals no matter if you are in a certain kind of gameplay, menu, or cut-scene. The issue can occur regardless of other settings, open applications, and game graphics options. This can be worked around by toggling G-SYNC, FreeSync, or some other kind of VRR technology and relaunching the game after your PC is configured to your monitor. If using an NVidia GPU, disable G-SYNC in your NVIDIA Control Panel, or if the issue occurs with an AMD system make sure to disable FreeSync. You can re-enable VRR using the same method and hopefully run the game with less stuttering, or leave it disabled and see if it fixes the issue.

On some systems, the game can exhibit stutters at regular intervals no matter if you are in a certain kind of gameplay, menu, or cut-scene, which appear as brief freezes at semi-regular intervals. The issue can occur regardless of other settings, open applications, and game graphics options, and is easily noticed on the start screen as well as save loading screen before you launch the game, or shortly after starting. If you notice this issue, this can be worked around by toggling your screen refresh rate, G-SYNC, FreeSync, or some other kind of VRR technology and relaunching the game after your PC is configured to your monitor. For example, if you are running the game on a 4K TV or monitor at 120hz, change your TV to 60hz and back to 120hz. If that does not work, try disabling G-Sync or VRR in your graphics settings and/or your screen and then re-enable it. Starting the game again after this may have alleviated your stuttering/freezing issue.

Microstutters and small freezes ingame

Disable Windows Game Mode on Windows 10[8]

The following fix is for older versions of Windows 10 where Game Mode was known to affect the runtime of games. Recent versions of Game Mode no longer affect the currently running game, and should not cause stutter, but if you are interested in troubleshooting, here is how you disable Game Mode:

  1. Enter Windows Settings > Gaming > Game Mode.
  2. Switch it to off
Toggle Refresh Rate/VRR/G-SYNC[9]

On some systems, the game can exhibit stutters at regular intervals no matter if you are in a certain kind of gameplay, menu, or cut-scene, which appear as brief freezes at semi-regular intervals. The issue can occur regardless of other settings, open applications, and game graphics options, and is easily noticed on the start screen as well as save loading screen before you launch the game, or shortly after starting. If you notice this issue, this can be worked around by toggling your screen refresh rate, G-SYNC, FreeSync, or some other kind of VRR technology and relaunching the game after your PC is configured to your monitor. For example, if you are running the game on a 4K TV or monitor at 120hz, change your TV to 60hz and back to 120hz. If that does not work, try disabling G-Sync or VRR in your graphics settings and/or your screen and then re-enable it. Starting the game again after this may have alleviated your stuttering/freezing issue.

Inventory corruption

Sometimes, the game will fail to save, and this can cause items in your inventory to become corrupted. If the game does not display 'save complete' at the bottom right of the screen, continue trying to save until it does save successfully, and your inventory should be fixed. It is recommended to keep multiple saves in case it is not fixed by a successful save, however.

Issues unresolved

Karaoke replay loading screen lag

When replaying karaoke cinematics, the white loading screen may appear for too long, causing the cutscene itself to show a few seconds into the song, unlike in console versions where the cinematic is revealed almost immediately.[10]
