Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
97 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story content is also fun and interesting overall, though some older content (unless recently changed and I missed it) ranges from mid to rough.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
76 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The core gameplay loop is great if you like grinding materials, watching numbers go up, and turning your build into increasingly ridiculous damage, movement, and ability chains.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
73 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There is a huge amount to grind, collect, craft, and optimize across frames, weapons, and base/guild-style systems.
Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You can farm pretty much everything: frames, weapons, companions, even premium currency.
Graphics

23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is amazing, the graphics are beautiful, and when it comes to optimization, it runs amazingly, even on older computers.
Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But it does get average of 70FPS with my PC, so they optimized the game pretty well.
