Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Seems like a great game but I can't get past the constant stuttering and jitters this game performs at. No matter what resolution no matter what setting when launching the game after 10 minutes the fps drops from 120 to 58 with stuttering…”
“Game runs super choppy even though I have the adequate hardware. Game looks like it would be a ton of fun but for now it's basically a motion sickness simulator. Looking forward to the devs fixing this issue and giving it another shot.”
