Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The music, sound effects, and ambience for this game are all perfectly serviceable and even pretty great at times, but despite that the sound design for this game's still the worst I think I've ever heard, not because any individual elements are bad but because of the way the game implements them.
