What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
If you're going to pick this game up, I highly recommend getting charge shot 3 and all Exceed related abilities with Nero ASAP, as that's the core of his gameplay.
Overall the combat is just smooth stylish and pretty fun, some enemies can be a little frustrating at times but as you improve and as you learn what tools each character has against each enemy the combat only becomes better.
Nero himself was an addition to the cast that I quite liked - his personality fits and clashes perfectly with the story and other characters, especially Dante and The Order of The Sword, and makes for an interesting dynamic.
I also liked the character design for Echidna who was a plant snake type of boss.
But to end on a good side, I did like these things about the game - soundtrack, combat, balanced difficulty (maybe bit too easy in some places but its ok), overall design and graphics, interesting variety of enemies.
The visuals still hold up well, the soundtrack fits the action perfectly, but unfortunately, the bosses are not as challenging.
