Playing Dragon’s Dogma Dark Arisen - it’s started doing the “Vulkan Shader” process again that takes 20 minutes every time I turn on the game.

Why does it keep doing this? Can it not just download what it needs to once? And that’s it? No more?

I’ve been reading if I turn them off then there can be issues? Is there any solution to this?
