Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
61 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Dawn of War 3 offers an interesting campaign and introduces the ability to play as multiple factions throughout the story, rather than sticking with the same Blood Ravens narrative.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I don't mind the art style at all, and I think it actually looks pretty decent all things considered, but the art can't carry the rest of the game or resolve the issues with the game breaking bugs.
