Users have expressed frustration with the game's music, noting that there are long silences of up to five minutes between tracks, which they find disruptive and potentially harmful to their hardware. This issue detracts from the overall experience, as it interrupts the flow of gameplay and creates unnecessary noise from cooling fans.
“It'll play one song, but once the song is over, it's completely silent for about five minutes before the next track starts.”
“It's a waste of energy, shortens the life of my graphics card, and my GPU's fan makes annoying noise while I'm trying to listen to music.”
“I also have a small issue with the music that I'm not sure is intentional or not.”
