From the orcs to the gremlins to the yup! - huge spiders, every model is rendered with meticulous attention to detail. This extends to your character as well. I found this doesn't just create a more believable game, it also adds to your feeling of sentience as every attack or climb sees the hands of your character actually interacting with the world. One truly of mention is when your and an enemy's swords crash together and spark as each attempts to overpower the other. Mashing LMB generally secures your success, but on the unlikely occasion it doesn't you're sometimes treated to the delight of seeing yourself picked up by the neck and thrown a good few metres away. Your health bar doesn't appreciate it, but it sure is nice to look at.
