Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
My girlfriend bought this game for me (Love u Mugi<3) so I technically got it for free but value wise I would definitely have bought this game myself. 45 hours in and so far I've had nothing but immersive Monster Hunting action, mechanics are great, story-wise is very average but easy to follow along, graphics is absolutely phenomenal and it's surprisingly well optimized, I'm literally playing it on a laptop (With lossless scaling on 720p upscaled to 1080p) and the game runs smoothly with consistent 60-70fps on low settings (and it still looks great!)

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The main gameplay loop is: go hunt a monster (similar to a good soulsborne bossfight in quality), make better gear from the gathered loot, repeat.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
That being said, the game is balanced a lot better than soulsborne games in terms of co-op with similar level players - playing through the game at the same time with a friend doesnt really bring down the quality of the fights like it does for ex. in Elden Ring.
