Visual spectacle is strong, although one reviewer notes motion blur can obscure otherwise striking battle imagery.

Pros: world-building, art direction

Cons: mission design, stealth mechanics

Visual effects quality was mixed; subtle lighting and effects were liked, but summons and some textures looked washed out to one reviewer.
