I hope you don't mind me copying'n'pasting what was already said in 2 reviews below me; simply because they took the words out of my mouth = I totally agree with them 100%

"Needs optimization as framerate is garbage, animations have no sync, so often times they don't line up. World is very busy and cluttered with UI arrows everywhere." And they are way too small to read, thus you gotta press your nose up to the screen to see them.
-and-
"Pointless traps that can simply be walked around, terrible fight balance, esc key closes game, etc. The list goes on and on."

I do believe the game auto saves, because when I 'ESC' from game and reloaded back in, I still had the 3 red vials I picked up in 1st play.
The game looks stunning actually, hence my 2 star rating.. the luscious grass and densely forested area looks just like real life, but it is the cause of the problem that the game lags so badly - I've said it so many times and I'll say it again: When are game developers gonna learn that putting in unnecessary moving vegetation (just for realism and looks that don't serve a real functionality / purpose) is the BIGGEST flaw when it comes to making a smooth running game?????
Also, yeah, game has totally zilch optimism options to turn down / off the graphics - there's no way to stop way too many things from moving, no cell shaders, no shadow shaders, no nothing actually - that will have to be the Dev's next assignment or else this game will continue to be a waste of time and space for everyone including the Dev themself.
Honestly, with the current flaws, you're fighting the game itself more than fighting the things within the game.
