What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
The story is surprisingly way better than I expected. the exploration and fighting is also good.
Tactical gameplay is also well rewarded.
There's also plenty of "minor" issues like jarring mismatch in resolution of textures; Skyrim healing system (open your inventory and eat 2 tons of raw food); actual meals being completely useless with permanent buffs like 2% atk and 3% hp; everything being overpriced forcing you to grind for items, just to get better ones from a common chest in the next zone, constant knockback from everything that touches you like in NES games, Adrenaline potion making you literally unkillable while killing everything on screen for 10 seconds etc. etc. etc.
The energetic metal soundtrack, gorgeous artwork, and fairly fun combat system made for an enjoyable experience, one that was well worth the 1-2 USD that I paid for it.
Also, play this with a gamepad.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 3 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
