Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
A lot of 3D games feel a bit too blocky to me, Vikings - Wolves of Midgard didn’t feel this way - I enjoyed the graphics, and while it’s gimmicky, I like the slow motion graphics at particular points.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
For starters, definitely play with a controller—despite the genre history, mouse and keyboard is frustrating to control and dodge, and your character often won't move forwards because they're targeting some rock or hidden enemy—the controller won't fix everything, because skills still felt pretty unresponsive, but it helps.
