Gameplay

You can dive straight into the action, multiple builds are viable, the enemies have fun mechanics, and positioning is a huge part of the gameplay which adds a whole new player of strategy.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
What the soundtrack lacks in depth it certainly makes up for in quality, the track for the secret boss blew me away when I first listened to it.

• Satisfying Visuals and Effects: The art style is clean and polished, with animations and effects that really add weight to the combat.
