Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
OK, graphics are rather nice and ambitions are not small here, BUT...
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Weapons feel great for the most part, the sound design for them is immaculate, honestly can't complain about the rest of them for the most part.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
The Dubai level is poorly optimized (not without optimization work that has clearly been done but there are still huge frame drops at times), too big/ambitious for the engine, crammed with elevators that take up time to be done with, and there is no clear instruction on what to find or where to go.
