The game's stability is a concern, as users report that it can freeze during the initial tutorial if the system is overloaded, with no option to adjust settings to alleviate the issue.
“One thing that stood out to me was the fact that the game starts with a tutorial the first time you boot it up. If something starts to overload the system, the game simply freezes, and there's no way to reduce the settings to improve the load on your system.”
“The game crashes frequently, making it nearly impossible to enjoy the experience without constant interruptions.”
“I encountered multiple instances where the game would freeze during critical moments, forcing me to restart and lose progress.”
