Overall, optimization remains a mixed aspect of the game; while some users note improvements in performance, others report issues such as small freezes and significantly worse performance compared to the demo, potentially due to the addition of AI players. Despite enjoying the visual elements like dynamic shadows, many feel that the game's performance should be considerably better.
“Performance is also improved - so I can finally recommend the game!”
“I did enjoy the dynamic shadows and nice views, but not much is going on - the performance should be twice as good as it is now.”
“The only downside is optimization; sometimes there are small freezes.”
“Performance is significantly worse than the demo, probably due to the added AI players.”
