PB games always have mixed reviews and mainstream does not forgive if game accents other aspects then graphics. Bad reviews cant spoil it for me … when I get around to play it … after Horizon and Elden Ring. What a year …
I read two negative reviews a few minutes ago and neither said anything about graphics.
graphics are weak, with missing textures in the distance and half-empty locations. I would even say that all the locations do not seem alive.
Well, the "positive" review at Gamespace does mention them :

Half of that quote is about graphics (the draw distance part). Saying that places seem empty isn't about graphics.
It's obviously fine to mention graphics in any review. My point is that poor graphics is far, far from the only criticism about this game (or any PB games, for that matter)
Exactly. That's why I'm on this site.I'm not worried about mixed reviews at all, they usually don't predict how much I will like a game.
It obviously wasn't agreeing with their system for some reason. It that was typical, we would have seen it in other videos.
I saw this in a (different) review today:
"To get this game running kind of okay on a Ryzen 9 5900HX and a RTX 3080, I had to drop down to 1080p from 1440p and run everything on relatively low settings. Even then, it still sat well below 60 frame per second, on a system that is way overspecced for most modern games. This has to be one of the most poorly optimised games that I have ever played. It runs so poorly that I honestly feel like it's bloatware at this point. I played the original on PS4 and it certainly ran poorly there, but I never imagined that the sequel would run this terribly on PC."
