I haven't played this game in ages. So, no, no it wasn't clear to me. Also, a person has to manually checkmark the box for
Preload in the options menu for this to be prompt to be present when you start up the game. Not everyone does this - usually only people whose computers can handle that data in the background.
I just fired up the game, checkmarked
Preload in the menu, and restarted. I had no problems. However, my system can handle most anything out today.

If you have had this problem for "each version" -
DO NOT PRESS P because it appears your computer is deficient in necessary attributes or something in your system is most likely not working correctly. Simply click your mouse in the game window to skip that and go to your OPTIONS menu and UNCHECK the
Preload box to keep temptation away. You can also make sure that none of the preferences carry over by deleting your game folder, typing %
AppData% in your Windows File Explorer and delete the preferences.json file in your TalesOfAndrogyny folder there -- then download, extract, and run the game again.
