Hell yes. 5-15 seconds is a pretty damn good improvement. Item descriptions will help make it feel quicker also.
The way I play this'll save me a half hour or so a day lol

2.725 GB. BUT it seems like it adds that on top of the old patches (which were already just over 2.5GB), so really it's only a couple hundred MB at most.
Some loading screen analysis.
- Dying at the Forbidden Woods and it gave me a loadtime of 23 seconds (This is what most of you will get)
- Using a Bold Hunter's Mask and warping back took me less than 10-12 seconds.
- Warping back to Hunter's Dream took 10-11 seconds. Not bad at all.
- Warping to a location from the Hunter's Dream took 24 secs (Grand Cathedral) 32 secs (Cathedral ward) and 31 secs (Central Yarnham)
As you can see, it can vary a lot by which location you may visit, there's still room for improvement imo.
- The item descriptions switch pretty fast tbh.
Framepacing doesn't seem to be fixed 100% but I can see some improvement albeit just a little though.

Someone on reddit said the patch also fixes the body type bug, where your body type changed to standard after rebooting the game. I don't know if you need to make a new character though - probably.
Including the loading screen descriptions, the patch notes don't list all the changes so there could be more stuff.

Patch is 250MB at most as long as long as you have the previous patch downloaded., Nice off them to do it that way

Dying at Cathedral Ward: ~15 seconds
Cathedral Ward -> Hunters Dream: ~10 seconds
Hunters Dream -> Cathedral Ward: ~30 seconds
Dying at Cathedral Ward: ~15 seconds

About 10 secs on average to get to hunters dream. About 15 for deaths.
Loading into zones varied. Took anywhere between 20-30secs? Still seemed long in that regard but I guess that's better?

Good. Nice to see improvement on loading times.

Did they fix the dogs/table unlimited BE glitch?
Someone had to ask
OK just checked the load times in the
and they must be cut in half post patch, yesterday I was farming chunks and when I returned to the lamp (with bold hunter's marks) the load times were maybe the double of what is now. I'm assuming that before the patch the game loaded all the
area but now it just loads this one specific area? either way a big improvement. yay!

From the official thread. It took me 30seconds to load my game from the main menu to my current save
On stock drive, 5400rpm. I will be upgrading my HDD soon to a 7200rpm drive, should load quicker I guess.

It's really noticeable when you go back to the hunter's dream. Takes about 10 seconds.

I have to assume they did since they caught the previous one.
Some of the 20-30 second loads are down to 10-15, and the longest load time people are reporting now is about 30 seconds vs. 40-60.

Thank god.
I understood it to mean that load times were reduced by 5-15 seconds, not that loading into a zone only took 5-15 seconds.

Good, I'll be going back to this soon!
Game changer. No kidding, i was tired of boring loading screens.

Probably the former. Loading from hunters dream to certain zones can still take around 20-30 secs in my game depending on where I go.

Welp, thought I was taking a break after just platinuming it.

Yes, by.
It's running at a properly paced 30 FPS more often then before, but not 100% of the time.

Good news, thanks. How are the items descriptions during the loading? Interesting to read?

Load times are really great based on my experience of the last 20-ish minutes of playing with the patch installed. They're about half what they were before, maybe less. Plus the item descriptions on loading screens is a really welcome addition.
Every item has its own description already.
