Deeper combat system compared to Replicant - the ability to add lifesteal, EXP and item drop rate increases to your playstyle allows you to switch up gameplay styles.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
103 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Combat is solid, even though this fast and flashy style is not really for me.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
81 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Great Japanese and English voice acting - even the credits music is localised
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics hold up beautifully even so many years later, but if any game is deserving of a huge glow-up in visuals to account for the worlds better hardware this is one of them, because you can see just how beautiful it already is and how beautiful it could still be in current eras.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Light elements of soulslike gameplay - reclaiming your loadout from your previous body after dying - adds some nice tension to gameplay
