Literally runs on 44 fps on a R5 4500 and RTX 3060

From my experience it’s not fps that’s the problem in paradox and civilization games. (Obvious slowdown on autosave ofc) it’s the turns, the years, the game speed that’s the problem. Late game is typically where it gets bad, you’ll wiz through the first year, decade, century, hundred turns, whatever. At some point though the game population, unit count, civilization size crosses some kind of threshold and there is a noticeable slowdown. On a new game it takes say 10 seconds for a turn, a month, whatever, and it can start to take a minute by the mid game.
