Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Couple that with the incredible atmosphere and aesthetic, the insanely good sound design, the music, the weapon feel, etc., and you get the best extraction shooter on the market easily in my opinion.

Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
for an 8 year old game, the optimization is poor at best, all graphics on low/off, minus textures and view distance, and I still max out the VRAM on my 5070ti and stutter constantly.
