Server issues. Simple as that. If it's not on your end, it's definitely on theirs.

Steam might be stopping your download because of unstable internet connections or it's doing its own version of taking a coffee break with server issues. Also, check if Steam's scheduled download settings accidentally put your game on pause mode till 3 AM! And don't forget, sometimes Steam just likes to test your patience.

Steam downloads can be sensitive to fluctuations; it鈥檚 like the platform throws a tantrum if the internet isn't stable. Also, peek into Steam's settings. There's this sneaky little bandwidth limit option that might be throttling your downloads.
