Story

155 of 300 sampled reviews raised it

Looting in Aarklash is pretty neat too; there are only four item slots per character, necklace, rings, pendants and trinkets.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.

This knowledge can help you prioritize enemies with lower HP, or enemies with heal skills for instance, making combat go much more smoothly.
Graphics

62 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
All the main character models are all extremely high quality, and enemy models are slightly lower in quality but still look decent enough given the rest of the games high quality textures.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
59 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
