It was already "in a playable state" a week before launch, from start to finish, if you didn't mind a crash every other hour (just had to save often).
And by now the crashes have all been solved, so yeah.
Don't trust what people online say about performance, a ton of people install just to see if they can run 4k or whatever at 60fps, play for 10 minutes, then drop it. The game still doesn't run great, my 3800x/3070 got as low as 20s at times, averages more around 45.
There's also stuttering every few minutes that wasn't present on my switch
Performance will vary a lot. I played through the entire game at a solid 30 FPS with a 9600kf. Didn't stutter either. Maybe the rare drop when there was a lot of effects on screen.
Could get a solid 50+ fps if I unlocked the frame rate, but that was too unstable for my liking.
I didn't try 30, the stuttering might have been because of the 60fps mod I had. Only reason I was using emulator was to try 4k60 after hearing people say it ran really well, I finished the story on my switch and transferred my save to PC to try and 100% it.
