    compat_comments: Intro's / Cutscenes:
    -
    Fmv’s hovers around 25-30 fps and on intro fmv doesn't maintain frame target. doesn't affect the intro but was noted.
    
    Sound:
    -
    fine.
    
    Performance / Gameplay:
    -
    Performance is locked 30 on opengl from what I played of the first area forest 1 and hub on ps1 also tested on 7730u (5800u rebrand) close to previous testers hardware and was getting a stable 20 fps not perfect but much improved from last tested. ps2 on other hand seems to be more heavy in the starting area minor drops to 27's on my hardware.
    There are some heavy performance issues with text rendering on character creation screen fading and out of text causes fps to drop to 15fps while fading happens which doesn't occur on hardware. Vulkan also has an issue with when walking in water ripples cause fps to tank but seemingly doesn't occur on opengl.
    
    Graphics:
    -
    Couldn't see any issues.
    
    From what I played it has improved quite a lot and on my hardware would say it was playable, but need more testing to change the rating.
