  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report significant stability issues, particularly with save file loading that results in a frozen screen while audio continues to play.

    • “After loading the save file, the screen freezes on the loading screen, but in-game atmosphere sounds begin to play.”
    • “I'm totally fine with many bugs and glitches, but when the game itself simply does not work, then it should not be sold on Steam.”
