Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
12 of 74 sampled reviews raised it
The skills and abilities are pretty fun to use and improve and figure out, but some already shine much brighter than the others--hard to beat having armies of toxic and virulent green skeleton warriors overrunning enemy formations (that's from the improved Font of Putrescence tarot skill tree).
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
10 of 74 sampled reviews raised it
As a fan of narrative-driven games and dark fantasy, I really enjoyed the rich lore delivered through the voiced Chronicles and the sense of building your own legend as an undead Harbinger.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
4 of 74 sampled reviews raised it
+Co-op: I have yet to experience the co-op but being able to play with up to 5 friends is a big positive in my book.
