Unfortunately I can't recommend this game as the bugs in this make the game literally unplayable, no exaggeration. I've just encountered a bug where I cannot now progress the main ql and before then there have been many bugs which have required me to revert to a previous game save, and with no quicksaving, means I may lose many minutes of gameplay, forcing me to repeat part of the story until I get bored of it. The story is good though, just its hard to immerse yourself in it due to the countless bugs. As far as performance goes, the first 3 hours of gameplay were bad, with many game freezes (no crashes though) and low fps issues meaning I basically couldn't fight. But after 3 hrs I didn't and still haven't experienced any more performance issues. (i5 7600K + GTX 1070 etc. see profile for rest). Just make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date and that you use the GeForce Experience (if you can) to optimise your game, then you should be fine. Graphics are ok, but that isn't what the game is about. I recommend you leave the game a while till all the bugs have been ironed out, but once that has happened I would recommend this game for story and game mechanics.

EDIT:

playing this game now for a 3rd time in 2021 and can say that the bugs seem to be non-existent for me now and I have enjoyed the game so much more. You might still find the occasional crash or stutter when playing but no more than I have come to expect from modern titles. So to say that it happens but maybe once every 20hrs.
