The game's story is generally viewed as lackluster, with many reviewers noting its flaws such as poor voice acting, incomplete narratives, and unrealistic NPCs. However, the presence of multiple character storylines offers some variety, allowing players to experience different objectives and paths. Overall, while the story may not be the main draw, it provides a basic framework for gameplay progression.
- “Each character has a different storyline, so picking a new character to play with will give you a new story and new objectives to complete their path.”
- “The skill trees for each character are individualized, giving you access to new unique defensive abilities and attack moves as you progress through the story.”
- “Tons of loot, equipped armors and weapons change your appearance, old school level progression (skill tree but also level up stats), multiple characters to play as, multiple difficulties, and, although nothing mind-blowing, a cool story.”
- “Awful story.”
- “The story is so depressing you out.”
- “Sure it's got some flaws: the movie compression is ugly, the voice acting is terrible, the storyline is incomplete and meandering, and references events and details which were never previously discussed. NPCs are completely unrealistic, but you don't come to this game for the story.”

The gameplay is generally enjoyable, featuring balanced movement and weapon mechanics that improve upon the frustrations of the previous installment. However, some players find the inventory management cumbersome and express little motivation to replay for achievements across multiple classes. Fans of action RPGs like Diablo and Torchlight may appreciate the similarities in gameplay style.

- “Gameplay wise, I don't think I'd play this multiple times to unlock all the achievements with multiple classes, and there's probably too much inventory juggling, but apart from that, it's a good blast.”
- “Gameplay-wise, I don't think I'd play this multiple times to unlock all the achievements with multiple classes, and there's probably too much inventory juggling.”
- “If you like Diablo, Torchlight, Van Helsing, etc., you might like this game, as the gameplay is similar.”
