- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

First week Performance was unplayable. 2nd week its fine and I've forgotten about the bad performance and I've been enjoying the hell out of the game. It's so good and I'm excited for future dlc, assets and mods.
It kinda sucks honestly, because I think if they literally got one or two more weeks, and disabled the offending settings such as depth of field, they would have received far less flak. I feel like a good 70% of the complaints are due to bad defaults.
Like, sure, they probably still would have gotten some justified criticism for it, but I don't really think the game deserved as harsh criticism as it got, or at least, the problems are all very surface level, and underneath what is there actually works well.
Eh I’m not buying it on principle now. Kind of sick of these rushed releases.
Finish them before releasing them.
Tried and true method is still wait until patches and DLC fix everything. If they don't have the patience to create a working game, I'm not rushing to by it.
If they had released mod tools on day 1 like they originally said, most of the game-breaking issues would have been addressed by modders by now.
