“this is potentially the glitchiest game I have played in my entire life, there is not a single heist where there is a glitch that causes something to go wrong, the collisions in VR are abysmal and clearly there was not enough bug testing…”

“Great game - WHEN IT WORKS. The few main bugs it has are simply game-breaking, including the following. These are issues that shouldn't be in a beta product, yet they're all but features in this game after years of release. I love the game…”
