This better fix those f*ckin loading times, i hate how i keep having to restart the game -_-

Just want to bump this. Need the trainer too. Hate collecting gold in any game.

I doubt that will happen. Mass Effect had the same issue. The engine tends to have issues processing new information after enough has already been input - the game is huge, and everything is unique. If you don't have ungodly amounts of processing power and memory, you'll just have to restart.

I wish that was the case, I have an AMD Phenom ][ Model 955 with 8GB of ram and Windows 7, x64-bit Edition, still will start slowing down the loading times after a couple of hours of gameplay or so....

Saving the game and restarting resolves the issue until it starts bogging down once again.

Here's hoping the fantastic crew here will have the next updated trainer soon, good job peeps

I ran this game for 21 hours straight with no slowdowns and without a noticeable increase in loading time.

Edit: Forgot to add Window 7 Home Premium 64-bit

Huh. Intel X9770, 8GB RAM, vista 64 bit. Haven't really seen any slowdown, even after several hours.
Regardless, the issue presents itself across all platforms after long enough, and I admit I haven't really worked up the courage to go more than, say, 10 hours without stopping :P

I found if you just installed it, it doesn't happen for ages. I only noticed it after 20-30 hrs of gameplay, now it happens all the time.

Hmm. It's apparently associated with the "Persistent Gore" option. If you have problems with long load times, it might be worth turning it off to see if it helps.
