The graphics suffer from frequent tearing, stuttering, and jittering, especially during portal transitions and movement with a controller. Although the default narrow field of view somewhat masks these issues, enabling smooth movement greatly exacerbates the visual instability, leading to a frustrating experience. Overall, the graphics are a significant weakness in the game.
- “The graphics are constantly tearing, stuttering, and jittering, especially when entering a portal, throughout the entire duration of the between-room load screen, and it continues heavily for several minutes after the world loads.”
- “By default, the game locks you into a narrow field of view tunnel-vision when using controller movement, which can be turned off. However, turning it off reveals tearing at all edges of the vision while using controller movement. With smooth movement enabled, the tearing intensifies and can cause discomfort when turning more than a few degrees.”
- “The graphics experience varies significantly depending on controller settings, with noticeable tearing and jittering in many instances.”
- “The graphics are constantly tearing, stuttering, and jittering, especially anytime you enter a portal. This issue persists throughout the entire between-room load screen and continues heavily for several minutes after the world loads.”
- “By default, the game locks you into a narrow field of view (FOV) tunnel-vision when using controller movement. If you turn this off, you realize it's meant to hide constant screen tearing around the edges during controller use. With smooth movement enabled, the graphics tear extensively when turning more than a few degrees, causing discomfort even in empty rooms.”
- “The graphics consistently tear themselves apart during movement and turning, severely impacting visual stability and causing headaches on smooth movement settings.”

The optimization is criticized for poor performance, with frequent graphics tearing, stuttering, and jittering, especially during portal transitions and world loading. Claims of superior performance over VRChat are deemed inaccurate by users.
- “One of the more recent reviews says the performance is better than VRChat and that's one of the most laughably untrue things I've read in a while, a complete and total lie.”
- “The graphics are constantly tearing, stuttering, jittering, especially any time you enter a portal, the entire duration of the between-room load screen, and it continues heavily for several minutes after the world loads.”
