Performance halts after hours of playing in the same session
These are honestly interesting reports, hope if endnight (Hey guys please make the game mono tyty) sees this they can take a look with the profiler.
Regarding the lag on cave enter and exit, thats due to a "relatively" ungraceful unload or load of the main map and all the attached parts of it, rocks, trees, etc.
Your building generally stay loaded at all times so these dont cause such issues, but big buildings can also cause issues for the same reason.
The 6 hour bug needs testing, due to the sheer amount of time its quite a pain to test, especially without access to a profiler.
Regarding the camp bug, thats not really a issue for the future i guess, the map is pretty much finished, but i dont really see why it would become indestructible. Maybe an issue with the main superstructure attached, not sure, but interesting

Try a full temporary deactivation of defender. I am not 100% sure how exactly redloader creates the assemblies so it might do something that your system is not a big fan of

Thank you
In rare cases windows defender can block the generation of the assemblies, some users reportet that deactivating windows defender or adding the sotf folder as an exception, running the game once so the assembly generation can finish, then reactivating windows defender again works

is the game worth buying?
The game is generally not well optimized, most likely just due to lack of experience with bigger maps and optimizations.
The systems they created also put quite a strain on any cpu, as these all run on cpu threads.
The horrors of small teams going from small map to big map.
I personally dont mind the lower fps, it works well enough for me at least, but i also dont have many long enough play sessions to run into the issues you described. So i cannot really comment on those.
Loading times have always been pretty long and only marginally improved over time, i am not very experienced in loading systems with unity so i also cannot really comment on what they did right or wrong, but i would assume its mostly due to the very high amount of objects we have in the scene.
Which pretty much all need to be loaded to just show the intro cutscene due to the height.
So yes, they could still improve a lot of things regarding performance, but i personally cut them some slack as it works generally well enough, even on older systems.
But if you are interested into diving deeper into those issues a seperate post would be great, this one is more about the general gameplay
