Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
There's also more effort put into the story and lore if you care about that sort of thing (I don't).
123 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Gameplay is very visceral, very satisfying.
85 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Performance
Players who bring up Performance mostly praise it.
Performance was honestly not great, you'd expect a game like this to run at 1000 fps but I had quiete a few moments where fps dropped down to 50 and even 40.

Audio

The soundtrack is alright, there aren't any standout tracks in my opinion.
