Review Note:

M1 Air - game stutters heavily. Fix it by replacing the FMOD DLL with a newer version:

Stable 60 at 1080p and less stable but enjoyable 50-60 at MBA's native 1600p. Borderline unplayable without the patch.

Locked 60 at 4K with Low Power Mode on (wow!).
Minor shader stutter at scene/fight starts - disappears quickly.
