Good. Ever since I got "burned" from Watch Dogs (E3 demo gameplay being noticeably different compared to the release version), I haven't bought another Ubisoft game since.
That's odd, because Nier Automata (and probably Replicant) had such smooth dodge mechanics and timing was on point with R2 and the characters' animation appeared very fluid. So saying that it's an artistic choice to have a 1/2 second input is odd. But I am enjoying the game very much.
The only 2 things bothering me are the block with L1 and the animation when swimming up and down. When I go to block while walking, I immediately stop in my path, the block animation plays, and I have to return the stick to center, then move the stick in the same direction as before. Essentially, I can't block and walk at the same time. Kind of annoying.
Then, when I spam press dive and rise, the animation feels a bit janky and immediate, rather than fluid and dynamic (think of swimming in the Uncharted series and compare it to this one.)
Again, don't get me wrong. I do thoroughly enjoy the game and I look forward to, maybe, the developers continue to tweak the input lag.
I didn't buy Deathloop because after Prey's buggy PS4 release (like input lag) and Arkane's lack of transparency in terms of frame rate performance (showing "PS4" footage with triangle, circle, x and square button prompts, most likely running on a PC), I told myself I wouldn't buy another game from them. I know it was 4-5 years ago, but I'm still a little sour about it.
It's a shame they didn't release the new PS5 update like after the show. Based on past update releases, I'd thought Wednesday would have been the day to get it.

I'm still sour about Watch Dogs. Gamers never forget.

@Loamy Yes! I'm a big fan of the steelbooks too if it's a movie I really want.
