The exploitable nature of the physics is what makes it so interesting, but I get the sense that that's gonna be what most critics pick up on. If the development team removes or tones that down, there'll be an uproar, but if they leave it as is, I can just see plenty of comparisons to something like Skyrim in how 'janky' it feels. An idealized middle-ground that will please everyone is surely impossible to attain.
