Little Feedback and performance review
Couid become a very nice game, but there are some small things that confuse me a lot.

First - Performance:
The performance is very bad. Compared to the system requirements i am slightly above the recommended stats and i am getting around 35-40 FPS on high preset. Epic is below twenty.
Also i face some framedrops to the below 20 direction.

But yeah i guess soon this will be patched... Hopefully?
Otherwise i have to refund, as i do not play below at least 60 FPS. Star citizen is running with more fps on my pc xD...

Second - Game Feeling:
The movement and controls totally are the opposite of what the game is telling. Starting with calm music and a deep talk... But when you start controlling your character everything feels like on speed. Definitely the npc took some speed xD. They are running like flash.
Also the lowest sensibility in mouse movement (which is 0), is very fast and it feels like its gliding out of hand. Surely its possible to get used to... But feels a bit uncomfy.

Third - Controls:
Honestly, the game feels like a console port. Which is maybe because it may was mainly developed for console (i honestly dont know), but the controls feel a bit clunky.
Starting in the menu, where the mouse often have no effect until i use WASD in the menu to start selecting menu options. Also if i hover over a menu option more down in the list, it always starts back at the top if i try to move with keys.

The movement keys feel a bit like console / mobile game. Hard to describe but most clea i would say its a bit unprecise.

Fourth - All in All / Errors:
I had some crashes to desktop and other small bugs in the beginning which brings me more to the waiting point. Feels like the game is not 100% polished. Sure launches are tricky, but i would like to start enjoying the story with a game running fine.

All in all its a good base to start with and i really believe with some love it could be a very nice game.

Fingers crossed!

PS: This is my personal feeling and the way i discovered the game. Sure some of you had different experiences. Thats nice and absolutely OK!

The crashing could be unstable overclock or undervolt. I sure as heck was sure the game was to blame in the end it turned out the Undervolt on my GPU that worked on "every" other game before, caused the game to "randomly" crash. Removed the Undervolt, no more crashes.

It just goes to show, synthetic Benchmarks and only testing a "couple of games" never ensure that an Overclock/Undervolt are actually stable.
