Users have noted a significant issue with the game's music, specifically that there are long silences of up to five minutes between tracks, which disrupts the experience and can lead to unnecessary strain on hardware. This silence is perceived as a waste of energy and has been a source of frustration for players.
“I also have a small issue with the music that I'm not sure is intentional or not.”
“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.”
