Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
It plays like finding branching dialogue options in a visual novel or something except in other games it is either a painful process of figuring out what will trigger new things or it is all purely laid out for you and you just are brought to each fork and the old answer you gave is gone.

Gameplay

The gameplay can be a bit improved but its a 2.5D game, so I dont know how much it can really be improved.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The voice acting, the way the cutscenes are animated, the style of literally everything—The Maxx-ness of it all likely had me grinning like a maniac when I made that connection.
