Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
83 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Unlike Beat Saber where I can clear Expert songs fine but struggle quite a bit with Expert+, the gradients between the difficulty levels feel less extreme, and there are plenty of songs.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
72 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There are gameplay modifiers, similar to osu!, which are entertaining to play with.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
37 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game is well crafted, with a decent soundtrack (which is getting better as DLC is added, and custom tracks help fill in the gaps) so if you like music games, and want the gunslinger equivalent of Beat Saber, then look no further.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I love the graphics in this game too, more than other rhythm games I've played, and enjoy the firework style particle effects as well as the futuristic environments and guns.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Aspects such as user-friendly timing windows, aim assist, maps getting progressively more complex, well-done campaign, leaderboards, settings to help you read well, etc.
