Impressive shader builder simulator, you can tell that the postponed release date really helped polish and optimize the game. Already looking forward to part two so that I can spend another 60 euro :D

Update after finishing the game: I had managed to avoid spoilers for this game and hadn’t watched the series before finishing the game. So I didn’t know too much going into this game other than there was a fungal apocalypse and that it would be a great story. And truly, This is one of the best games I have ever played. The story, the cinematography, the music, and the characters are just well thought out and executed. Many people have reviewed bombing this game since its initial release and sure the shader compilation is the longest I have ever experienced (it took 25-30 minutes for me).

However, once they were compiled I didn’t have any particle issues and the game was rather smooth on high 1440p. I experienced one crash and two minor bugs throughout my entire playthrough. And the crash happened before the first patch that was launched shortly after the release. It also seemed like most of the crashes were associated with starting the game before the shaders where completely compiled, which is not recommended. The bugs didn’t really affect my experience either I just had to restart the scene. At one time I got back to the spot I should have been if the game didn’t bug and the other time I had to play for 30 seconds to get back where I was before the game bugged.

This game was a really good experience and I quickly got invested in the story. I would give the game itself a 10 out of 10. But I think that the implementation of the game to PC could have been better and the initial launch takes too long. And it seemed like the one-day 30 mb patch could have saved Naughty Dog a lot of struggle regarding how bad it runs. However, I hope that this release doesn’t deter them from continuing with this franchise because I would really appreciate a part two for PC
