Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
138 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat is unique and rewarding because there is no parry or block button, instead there are "see through" attack moves that grant invincibility in the middle of your combo so you have to change up your combos to time your "see through" attacks with the enemy's attacks so you can stop their damage and immediately counter them with your attack.
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
122 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Personally I think the story is presented well, though it can be hard to piece together since the game picks up after the events of JttW.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
