Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Yet it does so without ending up feeling like its a needlessly obtuse escort quest that needs to be coddled every five seconds. honestly I've been playing it for about a month now everyday and its yet to get stale. pushing a little farther each time.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
I don't hate the game, the visuals are nice, I like how gradually unlock new things and the different ways you can "upgrade" your character and level up faster.
