Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Although this HOG is pretty old (it was first released back in 2010), this game still wowed me with its masterful storytelling (though you can probably guess where the storyline is heading towards), superb voice acting, and challenging HO scenes.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
As you play you will have a journal filled in as you meet the characters/plots unravel that are a useful addition to the story providing progress to the mystery & lighting up to make you aware of updates.

Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
Gameplay is as it usually is in this type of game, art is pretty good, though some things are super dark and I have issues seeing differences/items in such dark areas; I also know that helps with the searching difficulty, so I would never be upset over it.
