The level design is phenomenal with looping natural checkpoints mixed in with regular bonfire-like ones.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
75 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Despite the interesting story, I don't see that much replay value just to see another ending that may just be a disappointment or a mute cutscene, since there aren't enough other factors gameplay-wise.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

I think this game is practically visually perfect: from the very simple but good looking character models, to the stylish and very expressive 2D sprites that are used to represent characters in cut scenes and the stunningly beautiful levels with great lighting and impossibly beautiful architecture...
Difficulty

I'm in love with the character design of both your playable character and NPC portraits.
