Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
152 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Each character feels well-written and meaningful, which makes the narrative engaging from start to finish.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
136 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The combat system is fun and strategic, even if it can become a bit repetitive over time, but that could've been me, because I did 100% of the game and took longer and fought more than normal.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
114 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There's a fair bit of customization for each character, allowing for unique playstyles and team combinations.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Even though I love her voice acting (shout out to Laura Bailey, amazing job as usual), the character feels like it doesn't evolve throughout the game.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Visually the isometric art style fits the game really well with the cutscenes being novel 2D similar to Hades, each of the zones feels believable especially Bilgewater with the bars and alleys but also how the poorer residents are loitering.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
If you love ANY of the six playable characters, I extremely recommend.
