Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The graphics style is perfect for the game and is delivered well, it is a beautiful game to behold and while far from optimised does a good job of running well enough, bearing in mind it is essentially an Alpha; there are FPS dips, it will crash occasionally and as I already mentioned, it is missing assets etc but what is there gives a very promising sneak peak at what is to come.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
Camera angles were also a little frustrating when playing with keyboard and mouse, but it was much more manageable when playing with an XBOX controller.
