Has anyone here simply started a new playthrough since 1.02? If so, what has been your experience?

So far, playing with my saves hasnt been good...and Im too bummed at the moment to start a new char...though I guess I will, if I hear some good news...

i started a new game and have had minimal issues :celebration:

I started a new game, played for a few hours. Went pretty good so far, don't have to always wait for my companion anymore since they fast travel with me
which is good. Performance wise its pretty good to, seems to me hiccups are happening a bit less. But I get more now than when I started. Major problems started in my first play trough
when I got the first patch. I also only play 2 hours or less in a row. Just making sure I get the best experience possible!

seems that the hiccups increase as you gain levels. Notice that the size of the save file grows constantly. Well, as the collection of data grows, it seems that I've experienced that so too do the hiccups and lockups.

I'm thinking about just starting a new playthrough...are you guys still freezing after you past say...level 16?
