Update to the update:
Tried this time with a 2080 and Quest 2 (although still technically not supported hardware). The visuals are now very smooth, but didn't get the audio using Steamlink. Will continue trouble shooting and updating as I find solutions.
On account of the great support from the dev, I'm moving to a positive review. Hope to test with a physical link this week. For reasons unknown, I could not get my PC to recognize the Questlink app.
Update:
On account of the publisher's swift reply, I will borrow a headset from a friend and give this another try.
This is an experience, that I truly want to take advantage of.
Original Review:
Had severe issues playing this on the PSVR2 headset. Not even with a 4080 could I get this game to be stable for long. I'm open to community recommendations for getting this to run smoother.

Kudos to the devs for this. Its already an impressive VR historical experience/guided tour on the castle grounds alone, but my mind was blown when I realized it also had a fully explorable medieval reenactment of the entire Guildford town with a beautiful 24-hour weather system.
