Comments:

Severe bug in Salmon Creek Forest. Standing on top of the submerged skyscraper causes numerous things on the map to unload, with collision/interaction intact. Fixed by quitting game or reloading map. Avoiding the skyscraper seems to prevent the bug but cannot be certain.

In Salmon Creek Forest and arcade machine levels, Niko often gets stuck on seemingly nothing. Fixed by jumping.

Collecting apples and keys (or using keys) removes their counter in the inventory. Fixed only by reloading map.

In Handheld Mode, bottled messages don't display correctly making it a little difficult to read. Additionally the intended message isn't always shown when collecting them.

On the second island in Public Pool, Niko becomes permanently stuck when approaching the soda cannon from the right. Fixed only by quitting game.

In-game achievements are very buggy. Most don't notify if they're completed and don't update on the screen in Tadpole HQ until game is rebooted. The Hopeless Romantic achievement is especially broken but still unlockable.

Game crashed once.

Framerate is somewhat unstable in Docked Mode.

Once observed Niko spazzing out.

Observed one NPC's dance sequence glitching.

Once observed fishes frozen above water until approached.

Minor environment pop-in. Rare flickering textures.

Rare dialogue typos.

100% completed. Can be enjoyable but fair warning.
