15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Great experience: atmospheric walking mixed with reasonable puzzle difficulty, layered with an awe-inspiring artistic rendition of chaos and decay; puzzle challenges start with an awareness curve but become more comprehensive as the story progresses; Reading the lore and items do a great job setting the tone; and the writing feels well thought out, grasping at a greater beyond.
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
7 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I played at 4K all max settings and DLSS turned off – I was getting well over 100 fps.
