Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
36 of 145 sampled reviews raised it
It even manages to improve on the gameplay somewhat: the ability to move, or dash with a transparent shadow of where your character was is a great addition.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
22 of 145 sampled reviews raised it
If you like a cinematic-looking game with honestly beautiful graphics, regardless of gameplay, I recommend it.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
17 of 145 sampled reviews raised it
However, what it does have is a lot of extremely fast-paced action, tons of enemy variety, and a lot of difficulty settings to keep even the VR shooter veterans occupied.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
15 of 145 sampled reviews raised it
I understand people want locomotion right away in games like this and so do I but as you get your abilities/weapons you have to use them alone to survive and that makes this game a genuine challenge.
