Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Improved lighting, texture mapping, higher-resolution models, and larger battle environments helped create a more cinematic presentation than earlier entries.
24 of 209 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Yes, the Balance of Power expansion restores the "single player" campaign of its predecessors, but good luck trying to complete the campaign solo.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
used xbox one controller works fine, windows 10 crashes if i win, works fine if i lose.... only in single player MP seems fine so far.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
Now it still works fine through gameranger and turning internet mode off in the config area each time you host makes the multiplayer experience very smooth especially when doing co-op.
