Did some things in action games that have never been replicated as well across any game, with a fun emphasis on positioning instead of attacking.

Unfortunately, being based on positioning is really unfortunate when your camera is some of the worst thats ever been seen in character action. The terrible balance of this game also leads to game that gets significantly harder, but gets absurdly boring as it does. The harder the game gets and the more you learn, the less of your entire kit you use, prefering to just run jump evade forever, use one or two moves, then repeat. The games horrible balance across usable attacks means that the game gets absurdly repetitive as you learn more of it.

It still has some of the most satisfying movement to pull off for a protagonist though, and I do wish more games borrowed from its way of changing the game through difficulty options. Flawed gem.
