Its repetitive foundations are impossible to ignore, yet the enormous roster, different weapon styles, multiple campaigns, alternative scenarios, progression systems, and additional modes give that familiar combat loop impressive longevity.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.

I personally am completely comfortable with the difficulty setting now, since KOEI has a challenge mode in the game that takes time to master (with rare drop reward).
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
