Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon is one of those rare games that quietly grabs you, consumes your free time, and then makes you wonder how 98 hours disappeared so effortlessly... and I’m still very happily exploring Avalon :)
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
157 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Forty hours in, the story is no longer simply "one of the things I like about Tainted Grail." It is one of the main reasons I keep returning to it.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
157 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
TLDR: Great visuals, entertaining combat, engaging storyline, the grey morality of the grimdark setting can get a little repetitive but the rest of the game more than makes up for it.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

Visuals are wonderful, especially when you can pretty much max them out if you have a decent enough GPU since your CPU does most of the processing.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
47 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Finally, some of the characters were very memorable and there was a good variety in personality types with almost universally good voice acting.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.

There are so many ways you can build and customize your character, it's simply amazing.
