This is a banger game, but i was not enjoying it at first.
My biggest problems with it were the kinda lackluster story, the limited traversal , the sort of bland areas and the limited moveset of nero in the early levels . But as it went on , it got better and better to the point were those issues either got fixed or stopped bothering me ( the story was still nothing special but it was enjoyable). With a good soundtrack that apart from the standouts i have trouble remembering most songs , but the bosses were amazing and it has one of the best combats in all of video games.
It´s amazing what can i say.
