Completed the main campaign, all quests, collected all collectables, and experienced all bonus side stories.

Overall playable but with one major issue.

There are some frame-drops, but they don't significantly impact gameplay.

Some visuals look great while others look very blurry.

There are occasional long load times. Generally they vary between 10-25 seconds.

The word "new" never dissapears on some menu items, even once they have been interacted with (minor visual bug)
Post launch patches add a Skip option to "Deduction Denouement" which is a pretty helpful QoL feature. This is not on cart. Post launch updates also add extra voice acting for side quests which is not on cart.

Experienced minor spelling mistakes.

The MAJOR ISSUE is flickering. After chapter three, there is alot of flickering that happens pretty consistently. Sometimes the cutscenes flicker from light to dark. Sometimes random black or white flashes take up a portion of the screen. They happen very fast, and dont take away to much from the experience especially if you choose to read dialogue, but its very noticeable.

No crashes in 37 hours played.
