All water reflections are broken. This only rarely impacts the gameplay, namely when you have to collect sand from a downed enemy, but their body lies in a pool of water, and the broken rendering prevents you from seeing their exact location. Occasionally, there's a small border of 0.5-1 pixels with non-matching colors around the image. Text rendering is slightly off, it looks like one side is a bit cut off, while the other side has an extra border. Tha game itself plays fine, only rarely does the framerate dip below 29-30 fps. When it dips, its usually in areas with light/transparency effects, such as the pillars of light you use to save the game or the light reflection puzzles. I did not notice any other issues with the main game. The contained version of PoP 2 had the sound cutting out when I first launched it, but was fine on subsequent tries. The contained version of PoP 1 runs very slow (~9 fps). _id: 60da9bcced06972eda1989d9 provided_by_discord_id: 203207684793696256 provided_by_discord_name: Thrimbor#0666
