The optimization of the game is inconsistent, with users reporting serious performance issues, particularly on VR headsets like the Vive, leading to discomfort and poor experience. While it is designed to run on a variety of devices, many players have encountered screen tearing and stuttering, indicating a need for further improvements. Overall, the main menu is noted as the best-optimized aspect, contrasting sharply with the gameplay experience.

- “The 360 video is hit or miss; it isn't optimized for VR and made me sick to watch.”
- “Serious performance issues - except for the main menu, which is the best part.”
- “Haven't had a single Vive game crash on me, so I'm not sure what the issue is, but it seems poorly optimized.”
