Did not encounter any stutters or hitching during gameplay either and the loading is very fast.
Combat

With an RX 9070 XT and 9800X3D I can easily get 120-150+ FPS at 3440x1440 on High settings and maxed out textures on Nobara Linux.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
52 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
A very fast, exhilarating shooter with great aesthetics and sound design, marred a bit by the technical issues that seem prevalent with all UE5 games — the UE sheen, stutters, and sound glitches that required booting back to main menu to fix.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
41 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay good, story puzzling, bosses easy to understand, all guns have their purpose and use, hard difficulty already pretty intense, performance decent.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The only character I found really engaging to be around is Operator, another voice that follows you around Eden.
