The optimization aspect of the game has received criticism for its inadequate benchmarking tools and unrepresentative performance tests, with users recommending alternatives like CPU-Z, GPU-Z, and 3DMark for more reliable comparisons. Many feel that the app fails to provide a comprehensive view of system performance, lacking customizable benchmarking options and essential details that impact performance evaluations. Overall, it is not recommended for those seeking accurate performance comparisons in 2022.

- “I still want the option to perform my own benchmark under my own conditions and parameters so that I can compare my system against itself after performance tuning.”
- “Website is down, the test isn't representative of game performance, and default settings are bad for benchmarking in general.”
