The story seems pretty intriguing so far and the voice acting is pleasantly good.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 34 sampled reviews raised it
The story was pretty predictable but it served the purpose of moving the plot forward and the voice acting really helped make it feel authentic, the VAs involved did a great job.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
11 of 34 sampled reviews raised it
No bloated atmosphere that feels like an empty world, or excessive NPCs, nor an arbitrary crafting system.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
9 of 34 sampled reviews raised it
Being able to dodge, parry, and melee kick even when the enemy is not stunned is nice (though I haven't gotten the parry timing down just yet).
Graphics

I feel like playing in coop is probably the optimal experience, but solo it's fine.
