    I’ve seen other games add a secondary loading bar for the individual task at each step. So, sure, its stuck at 5/7, but then the second loading bar shows it’s still processing.

    Perhaps the best indication is just telling the user what it’s doing rather than an arbitrary progress bar.

    Edit: Just gonna add, I’ve been playing Bannerlord and the game (while heavily modded) just silently freezes when starting a new game. Outside of task manager and watching the game just not do anything for a while, you wouldn’t even realize it was frozen.
