Every time i boot the game up this happens, i checked game files integrity, i unsusbiscribed from workshop mods, i reinstalled the game, but i still can't play. I've been having this issue for a few weeks so i would like some help fixing it.

It may also just be a corrupt motd cache file, found at: Documents/Klei/DoNotStarveTogether/###'s/client_save/motd_info

If you delete this file, then it'll fetch a new one when it tries to load the motd again.
