What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
It's fun as hell and has an awesome character creator and a interesting story.
I could say, currently, Code Vein is the best anime Souls like there is, with only Code Vein 2 having a chance to beat it after DLC launch, and promised gameplay improvements.
Also, this game is REALLY optimized, it doesn't use as much CPU/GPU at all, and the only game I've ever seen that happen was MGSV, I even played this on a low-end laptop when I bought it (8GB RAM, Integrated Graphics) so it's doable to play this unless you tweak if not most of its settings.
It's aesthetic is superb without a doubt, voice-acting is subpar but it gets the job done, and for a Namco game you'd be impressed.
