Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The game is great in it's current state but it basically has zero replayability (once you finished the content) and roughly 3-4 hours worth of content, so keep that in mind when purchasing the game.

Anyway I mainly bought it to play with my buddy on couch-coop buddy and we had fun, tho only 3 hours that is then there was nothing more to explore.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Aside from that, a few updates to the UI could be useful as well, especially when the player is navigating through the menus with a controller.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
The stats system and playstyle does add a little personalization to the gameplay, and the multiplayer mode is a great way to socialize while taking on dungeons and bosses together with a friend.
