|comment= The game takes a very long time to start, usually around 2 - 5 minutes, and most areas in the game either load instantly or take a minute to load. There are also some minor visual glitches, such as the blood explosion not being present in the chapter select screen and the Moon loading screens looking incorrect, and there are major sound issues as well, especially on the title screen. Also the mouse tends to be sluggish when in FPS mode. This applies to both using D3DMetal and using DXVK.
