The game's optimization is severely lacking, making it nearly unplayable, especially in crowded situations where performance issues and character collision problems hinder gameplay. Players recommend using the lowest settings to mitigate these issues, but overall, the game's controls and enemy density contribute to a frustrating experience.
- “God help you if you're surrounded and not playing this game on potato settings because of the game's lack of optimization, or you will have to wait for the enemies to move in a way for you to walk away; otherwise, you just roll and get blocked by their character boxes.”
- “Overall, it is unplayable due to controls, enemy density, gameplay, performance, and lackluster storytelling.”
