Today we will highlight some reasons why we think you should definitely try this game on your Windows PC and see what the fuss is all about for yourself. I am sure most of you have heard, the official release of this game for the PC didn’t go as planned and it has been plagued with bugs, it’s release is almost as as bad as the release for CyberPunk 2077 for Windows, keywords, almost. PC gamers like myself first noticed the game would constantly crash, sometimes during launch and sometimes in the middle of the game, that can be very annoying to say the least, but, lets not just focus on the negative, luckily the company behind the porting of this game, Iron Galax and the developers Naughty Dog are working day in and day out by releasing several patches and updates to fix the major issues. I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt that they will eventually fix most of the major issues, and already I can see the Steam rating improving every few hours thanks to the patches. Either way, I managed to spend a few hours playing the game on PC and I am simply waiting for the Mods for this game to be released, I think the Steam modding community is one of the best, if not the best modding community in the world so that is where my hope lies. I have already played and finished this game on my PlayStation 4 so I more so looking forward to new content like new DLC’s and such, but that’s just me.
