Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The game is running Unreal and as such it feels pretty unoptimized for the level of visual fidelity. objects and textures aren't culled properly and small details like bullet decals never unload, making a game that would have run on modest systems five years ago need a ton of vram overhead for little to no benefit.

Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.
this is a really fun game, with lots of outfits/hairstyles, etc, to find, or buy with in-game money, not a cash shop.
