So, I've been experiencing some crash problems with PA. I'll admit. My computer sits right on the EDGE of what can play PA. Actually, a little behind it. I've only got a 32 bit OS, and a bit less than 4 gigs ram. However, I've found that I actually CAN play the game, and still be quite satisfied with it. However, sometimes when I'm transitioning between main menu to battle, or vice versa, the game crashes. HARD. I've had blue screens. I understand that this is probably a result of my hardware limiations. But I still felt that something was off about it. So I decided to have a look at my processes and see what I could trim. That's when I noticed the processes in the attached image. That is over a quarter gig of memory being taken up by UI processes. And not just any UI processes. That is on the MAIN MENU, having JUST OPENED THE GAME. This is a SERIOUS Optimization problem. The main menu shouldn't be taking up that much of my game's memory. I could understand if my computer was crashing during gameplay. My problem. But this is just insane.

This most likely happen due to 32-bit OS per process memory limitations. For more information and workaround check this topic: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/648816742979172000/
