After beating the main quest, and I mean right after, the game takes FOREVER to load if it ever does load, i've been watching a bear zoom in and out for about 10 minutes now and it's not loading, I never had a problem with this until I beat the main quest. has anyone else experienced this?

I do play on PS3 but again, I've never had a problem until now.

You might have to do some "clean up". I started having the same problem until I did said "clean up". What I mean by "clean up" is picking up after yourself after every fight. I.e. weapons and shields that drop from dead enemies. After I did that it made my load times a lot better.

Yes, since you are a PS3 player like me, you have to become a janitor after every fight, skirmish, heck even after any random hostile encounters. The game for some reason will not clean up fallen weapons and shields. You might want to avoid dropping things in the world if you are overencumbered,

Well, I'm actually an Xbox user, but I still had that problem on my 500+ hours character<--- But that may be the case.

I know, I was refering to the OP. The Xbox has it MUCH easier.

Ah, ok. I wasn't paying attention then.

I could have organized that paragraph better.
