Also, while I wasn’t pleased with the soundtrack at first, it eventually grew on me as I kept playing.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Concept is a 14/10 to start with(Mecha knight Vs. Mythological creatures all over the world), Story is simple but has enough there, the cut-scenes are serious eye candy, OST is jamming, Difficulty is absolutely present (completed a hard play-through, dunno about the other modes but hard kicked my ass a fair bit.), and is seriously fun.
