A little janky, but I can't really complain. It was always an insane design choice not to let us view our character when there is so much customization and being a big blue doofus is one of the key selling points.
I skipped basically every opening cutscene and powered through the tutorial, which still wasted about 30 minutes of my life. Otherwise, yeah, not exactly the most challenging or tightest combat in the world, but a decent enough change of pace.
A DLL swap enables XeSS-FG/XeLL on my 3080, so with everything on high I am getting around 140–150 fps and it looks great.
I can understand why it did not get much attention at launch, but in its current state, for $20 with the new expansion, I will be happy even if I just get 20–30 hours out of it.
