Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I'll just play through it in couple hour segments for the story before moving on to the next game, but I seriously doubt I will be doing a real completion run because of how annoying this is, when I want to grind in this sort of game I want to spam a map several hundred times in one sitting, not save after each map.
