Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
85 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay is rather complex and very fun and interesting with a large amount of elements, statuses, abilities, and such, but I've never found myself overwhelmed by it and it's rather easy to know what generally will and won't work on a particular foe.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
66 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There's an abundance of foes, gear, abilities, puzzles, boss fights, lore, character dialogue, secrets, challenges, cryptic clues, areas to explore, storylines, references of inspiration and a stellar soundtrack...
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Furthermore, the simplicity of Equipment (each character having access to clearly defined weapons and armour, with many flairs to keep variety in the game) keeps it from becoming an overly complicated mess of each character having hundreds of disconnected equips that they can use.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
38 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Going for the epic difficulty battle challenges was probably the most fun I ever had in a single-player game.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
26 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Also it has a banger soundtrack and references a lot of games I've played so I feel like this game was made for me.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
These can be attached to whoever may use them without losing the move's level, allowing for a considerable amount of character customization.
