The game's optimization has been criticized for causing significant performance issues, including stuttering and low frame rates, even on capable hardware. Players have reported experiencing motion sickness due to these problems, suggesting that the low-poly graphics should not demand such high resources.
“The low-poly models of the game should not be highly demanding, so I believe the issue lies in the game's optimization.”
“I experienced performance issues on an i7-6700K and GTX 970. Even after turning supersampling down to 50%, I still encountered 12 ms frame times and reprojection.”
“While I really liked the concept of the game and it feels like a more advanced version of the lab's longbow, the poor optimization was a big issue for me.”
“I was getting motion sick very quickly with the stuttering.”
“The low-poly models of the game should not be a highly demanding game, so I believe the issue is in the game optimization.”
