[Lag, Stutter, freezing, hanging, loading (terms for future people searching for lag fixes)]
To anyone that may comment about having a very laggy game, you should be aware that the terrible, almost game-breaking (for me and many others, not all) lag has been an ongoing issue and HAS been acknowledged for ~2 years now with no fix.
Although devs consistently say that they are working on a solution to the lag, they have been saying that for... well... ~2 years.
I firmly believe that the devs want to and are trying to find a solution to the lag issue, but I also do not expect it to be resolved anytime soon as they are focused on pushing out quality content updates more than the lag fix. I will go back to supporting them on Patreon once the lag is addressed. Until then, the game is unplayable for me on 3 different PCs.
