Notes

High frame rate issues
- Frame rates above 60 fps will cause NPCs to be more sensitive than intended and may affect pathing timing. Game is still playable at 144 fps, but issues may arise if attempting to play through a level with perfect stealth.
- Very high frame rates will cause a "slow motion" effect in-game. Extremely high frame rate (above 1024 FPS) will freeze character movement and break in-game cutscenes, which can make it impossible to load the opening level.
