    Yes, this happens on Steam for me. I don't know how to fix it, other than saving often.

    I'm getting strange high CPU usage aside arcanum running on 2 threads, i didnt see this when i played on WinXP years ago. No idea of what could be, i know you can close 1 of the threads and the game will run fine but still with high CPU usage.

    The game has a memory leak issue, I don't know if that's a problem with modern computers but who knows eh?

    For me, the freezing issue isn't that bad. I can usually play for an hour or so without any trouble. All I have to think about is save frequently, which is something I'd personally do anyway.
