Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
83 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Text really isn't a great way to describe all the nuances and mechanics in the game, and it's actually more fun to figure them out for yourself.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
55 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The ability to start and play the game different every run through makes it get old incredibly slowly, and the high difficulty means that its always challenging.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
49 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat is clearly one of the game's strengths, due to the unusual action diversity.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I am very excited to see the game develop further, to see more classes, and see how refined the gameplay between them comes.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
-Controls are really tight and dialed in (playing on a 360 controller)
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Local Co-op makes this game one of my favourite of all time, however I WOULD LOVE TO SEE 4 PLAYER LOCAL CO-OP.
