There's a lot of fun to be had with everything, and a lot of attention was obviously put into every single playstyle, so that it never feels dull, or trivializing, which is really impressive.

You can even create your own build with a mix of gear, badges and weapons, choosing your own playstyle.

The soundtrack and graphics are lovely, Bosses are amazing, enemies are quite creative, and the amount of weapon types gives a lot of actual freedom in how you can approach fighting.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I will try to continue to play this game because it is one of the very few games able to be played locally in coop.

Loved the rpg/Zelda feel with a great soundtrack, reminiscing of the Super Nintendo days.
