Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
On the technical side, we have worth seeing graphics (The 1st-person-view on your deck is excellent), stable FPS even in massive battles, an exemplary translation and a beautiful soundtrack.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game’s difficulty is forgiving enough to welcome newcomers but offers enough challenge to satisfy those who seek tactical naval combat.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
And the soundtrack is a must buy with a minimum of 13/10 as it really captures the dance of naval warfare (just so you get a “picture” of the soundtrack... there surely was no dance and naval warfare must have been hell).
