    27 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is described as intriguing with a good flow of dialogue, though it suffers from repetitive quests and a lack of depth in later stages. While some players appreciate the potential for a more developed narrative, others feel it falls short, particularly after the initial hours of gameplay. Overall, the story has promise but requires further refinement and expansion to fully engage players.

    • “The first 5-6 hours there is like an actual story/progression but after that it's just selling cocaine to the people in the mansion, and that's it.”

  • optimization
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has received significant criticism, with players reporting severe performance issues that can overheat systems and lengthy loading times, even on capable hardware.

Many users express hope for better optimization in future updates before committing to a purchase.

    • “Good game, I'm hoping for more optimization when it releases fully.”
    • “Potential; the minimap needs upgrading to keep the icons aligned like in Skyrim, drag and drop quantity is broken, and a performance upgrade is needed.”
    • “It's just not playable without frying my system to a crisp. I think optimization and the ability to turn shadows off completely would help a lot. Besides, it's not a multiplayer PvP game, so you don't have to worry about someone disabling them for an advantage.”
    • “Potential is there, but the minimap needs upgrading to keep the icons aligned like in Skyrim. The drag and drop quantity feature is broken, and a performance upgrade is needed.”
    • “I was going to buy this game, but I'll wait until it's better optimized like they said.”
