Key points

Steam version requires a physical or virtual optical drive with any disc/image in it to run on Windows 8.1, 10 & 11 (remnants of disc-based DRM).[3] On Windows 7 game launches with no problems.
Problems with launching the game on many systems (black screen with stuttering sound).[4] See Crash at startup to fix.
Graphics inferior to console versions, with missing character reflections and worse lighting.[5]
