I found this franchise because of Desmond Amofah.
This game, despite 12 year old me at the time not knowing it, would be regarded as having the best combat in the franchise, with a very shitty story. And I agree. Despite the story being a barn of shit, the soundtrack is fucking beautiful, the characters are loveable and the combat is amazing. No matter what people say about it, this game will always be a 10/10 for me.
