Yeah most sequels play the same, but even the assets/env look reused here. I think GoT was a very expansive game which took everyone by surprise. People who were expecting the same here might be disappointed !
Bought the game again as it is back to 90% off
i found out what was causing the crashes.
it was something to do with GPU undervolt profile not loading.
My GPU was boosting at higher clocks than default boost clocks
so far runs well and looks great too.
