Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
the story and lore is great. always in the background so you have to work to understand it. despite not being a fan of fantasy, the world building and characters in this game are fascinating to me, and i can’t help but wanting to know all about them

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
gameplay is so fun. fighting the enemies is fun, killing the bosses is so satisfying. most of them are so well designed and it always felt like it’s my own fault and i had room to improve. very addicting to play,
