Issues unresolved
Shader compilation stutter
- While the game offers shader compilation when you start it for the first time, not all shaders are compiled.[3]
- The game suffers from severe shader compilation related stutters during gameplay, this occurs whenever a new effect is displayed and thus whenever a new shader has to be compiled.[4][5]
