The story has received mixed feedback, with some players praising its emotional depth and improved writing, while others found it predictable and detracted by pixelation that hindered immersion. The narrative is noted for its darker tone and engaging plot twists, particularly in the context of character development and thematic depth, culminating in a satisfying conclusion that connects well with previous installments. Overall, while some aspects may feel clichéd, the story's complexity and character arcs have resonated positively with many players.
“The story improves every aspect even further than its predecessor.”
“The story's darker tone and higher stakes can only be comparable to 'Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith', perfectly portraying the tragic downfall of our beloved main character, Masato, as he completes his transformation into a misguided yet confident lover of traps.”
“The story is compelling and makes you cling on and want to find out what happens next.”
“The content is still pixelated, which in most cultures is still considered censored, and it ruins the story immersion.”
“It's too bad because I was really getting drawn into the story, then lost all interest the moment things were pixelated.”
“That also added up to the story (except the ending) being quite predictable.”

The music in the game appears to be underwhelming, as one user chose to turn it off and replace it with tracks from other games like *Bloodborne* and *Doom* to enhance the experience. The user found that the alternative music provided a more fitting and immersive atmosphere for the game's scenes.
“Unfortunately, I kept the music off for most of the runtime.”
“I opted for my own choice of music during the scenes, including (but not limited to) 'Orphan of Kos', 'Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower', and 'Ludwig the Holy Blade' from Bloodborne.”
“'BFG Division' from Doom (2016) also fits during these moments, but Bloodborne's soundtrack gives the scenes a completely different (and story-accurate) tone, so it's far more preferable.”
