Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The writing/world building is great, and the art is also just as good so it is still great.

Firstly, the art style is wonderful.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The art is beautiful, the sound design is fantastic (I love the opening tune), and the plot being more atmospheric leaves a few ways to interpret what happened.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
absolutely gorgeous... i think the art was one of my favourite parts of the game. from the book pages to the cutscenes it was wonderful to look at. the gameplay was lacklustre though i didn't expect some amazing thrilling thing from something like this. i dont think the gameplay needs to be super engaging but if you get bored easily probably not for you... i loved the lore with the gods and the deities it was really fun to read about!
