** The final cutscene establishes that [[spoiler:Albert is the saboteur, and that he murdered Dr. Tomaszewski, Marcin, and wrote Karolina's final note himself]]. The problem is, this calls ''vast swaths'' of the game's narrative into question and opens several huge plot holes.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: When you learn that [[spoiler:the ruined city is actually a simulation built inside a massive cavern]], you would expect that would dominate the plot for the rest of the game. Instead, Albert loses his shit, angsts into his PDA for a minute, and one loading screen later, you're unceremoniously dumped into a dilapidated tunnel. It never comes up again apart from one throwaway line in the ending.

The problem is, this calls ''vast swaths'' of the game's narrative into question and opens several huge plot holes. Aside from the fact that several sequences almost require Albert to be in two places at once, the game never makes clear what was real and what wasn't, to the point where it only makes sense if you conclude that almost everything unusual or supernatural was just a hallucination. To quote one Youtube comment, "Either nothing is explained, or everything is explained in the least satisfying way imaginable."

** The cannibal giant can only be hit after he throws his spiked shield. To avoid the damage from the shield, you have to make sure it hits an obstacle - it's otherwise completely undodgeable. After he throws it, you can shoot his weak spot, the giant target on his stomach. He moves too slowly to really catch Albert, so you're not in a lot of danger from him, but he has a mountain of HP and you're struggling to chip it away.
** [[WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}} Junk Thardus]]'s weakspots are not always obvious, and it has several phases. While its attacks are fairly easily dodgeable, for some ungodly reason, the devs saw fit to ''shut off your healing for this fight''. Even worse, its second phase spawns ghosts, and its third phase gains an ungodly fast shockwave attack.
** The Saboteur requires you to stun him by shooting out the generators in the boss arena. This is easier said than done. Every time you shoot out a generator, it needs some time to recharge, and the saboteur can shoot them to stun Albert. Even under the best of circumstances, the boss stunning only works about half the time. All the while, the saboteur is running around the arena blasting at you with his HandCannon.
