Wanted to give Spider-man 2 a try (released in October 2023 on PS5), but seems like the port is a mess (sopuli.xyz)

Bought it last night cause I've been waiting patiently for it to come to PC. I thought I'd have a relatively smooth time if I played on the lowest settings possible...

Nope. Audio way out of sync, constant freezes during cutscenes and the models were all fucked during, too. When I finally got to the gameplay, it would stop to load in the environment like every ten feet or so. I was extremely disappointed, but not entirely surprised.

My rig is about 5 years old at this point too.

Decided to refund it until it's more stable/goes on sale.
