They are either supermassive, millions or billions of times the mass of the Sun, or stellar-sized, from a few times to a few tens of times our little star. There is an in-between category known as intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) that weigh from 100...

The fact Wuchang Fallen Feathers isnt optimized come its release date isnt a surprise in 2025 plenty of games get post-launch patches to make them run better.
