Graphical glitches, major sound glitches, disabling audio advisable. Playable when limited to 30 fps as for some reason the game runs too fast when reaching higher frame rates (during loading screens\training mode). Tested on the prologue only (completed).

It still has that major audio beeping glitch during fight scenes, and the audio during cutscenes tends to get ahead, sometimes by quite a bit, but I want to call it playable because the graphical glitches are vastly reduced. You can actually see the cutscenes, and the intro fight scene is also fully visible. Just some FPS dips every now and then. The fighting is actually remarkably smooth now.

Speaking of my experience, I cannot clear the game due to high frequence of flickering. However, it seems some people don't those heavy issues. So it may depends of your computer specifications.
