Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
But after finishing the game with all characters, despite some movement flaws (that I got used to I guess) I can comfortably say that I really enjoyed the gameplay loop!

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
It's not offensively bad, it’s not too buggy (I’ve had the sound effects randomly turn off for me, and the minimap mouse cursor gets stuck on-screen for the Warrior sometimes) - it's just flat out boring.

I have used the steam online co-op functionality with this game, with good success.
