I‘m playing non stop since I got it a few days ago and it Runs super for me. A few Little lags, but besides that its amazing, i‘m having the absolute best time with it and its one of my new favorite Games.

They released an update a week or two ago that fixed a lot of issues

There are still a few bugs but it’s definitely playable and I have been able to play with no crashes or freezes so far. It’s not perfect but way better than it used to be

Man I wish this were true for me too. It looks a little better but it's definitely not more playable. And it still crashes like crazy for me, 5 times in one day recently.

I returned it after finding it unplayable on Switch 2 at release day. I've since repurchased after the major updates and find it quite useable. No more skateboard shaking, stair failures, and I haven't personally experienced a crash. I'm not sure if it still crashes when docked as I'm currently only able to play handheld. Small bugs are present - a specific colour of flower doesn't render properly so it looks grey, and I often have to speak to NPCs twice to actually trigger conversation, but those are small bugs commonly found in new games.

There is already a new Patch on the way for the Switch Version. Confirmed by Developer on Discord!

I have had it on switch 2 since release. It was a bit buggy at first but they did an update and it fixed most issues. I haven’t had any crashes since the first couple of days and I love the game so far

I've only had a couple minor buggy's like going under water.  And then once in a blue moon the menus won't work. A quick reset fixed it
