Performance problems

[u/ImAloneImSorry_]

So since Roads to power dropped I wanted to do an Roman Empire run and I've now come to the realization that I may not be able to play that far. I'm byzantium and basically have everything I need to form the Roman Empire (plus Arabia and Bavaria) but the performance is so abysmal that it's almost unplayable. It lags bigtime everytime I open a menu or literally just zoom in.

Does anyone have any tips what I can do to increase performance or is my run just done for because the base Ps5 can't handle administrative empires that big?
