Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
225 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The essence of the story isn’t much, but it’s engaging for the most part and full of feelings — sadness and anger mostly.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You might notice early 2010's (last gen) lighting and shadows, but the graphics is still pretty good even today.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
21 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But those moments never really take away from the experience, thanks to the overall quality of the visuals and the outstanding facial animations, supported by stellar voice acting that gives every character depth and personality.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But as a co-op bridge to share with someone who doesn't know their way around a controller, it’s invaluable.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It’s not clean or polished in every aspect, but it takes risks, tells a compelling story, and builds a character you actually care about.
