Mine is the lag in Stellaris, and lack of options to let me impact it. Like let me disable the ability for the AI to make habitats FFS!

Progress bars going to 100%. Many games are guilty of this, Baldur’s Gate 3 most recently. If 100% are loaded, why am I seeing the loading screen still? The game should be starting. You’re clearly not at 100% if I’m still watching the loading screen. It should be impossible to see a fully filled progress bar.
Artificially make progress bars stop at 99% if you must, it’s still better than watching 100% being a clear lie.
Are you playing MP? I’ve never seen this but I would suspect it’s done loading and simply waiting for the other players
No, this is in single player. Both when I load the main menu and the game. On a brand new pc, too.
I would take no progress bar at all. Progress bars are inaccurate because the time it takes for an action to be done on a computer is unpredictable.
It also causes an illusion of something loading faster.
Progress bars are bad indicators for representing remaining work or time, but it’s a decent indicator that something is still being done. Though it’s uncommon these days, I remember several instances of older games that has stopped loading. Showing the same percent for a minute is a decent indicator that something has gone wrong.
While I don’t care for percent as a displayed number, I do enjoy some kind of indicator showing that the loading is progressing.
