Is this game worth it for the story?

I heard that this game has great gameplay and unlock system, but I havent heard that much about the story, which is the main reason why I play games. So I am asking if it is any good

[EDIT] Thank you to everyone who took the time out of their day to answer. I decided that I will hold off from buying the game for some time, maybe in the future i will buy it.

Is it possible for EVE to Rush an enemy just before an attack lands?

So, to perform a Perfect Dodge, you normally evade an attack right before it hits you. But could EVE instead rush the enemy after the attack has already been fired?

I’m not talking about moving before the attack is launched, but rather, reacting once it’s already in motion, then dashing to the opponent and reaching them before the attack would’ve hit her original position.

Any games with similar combat mechanics + good story?

Finished two play throughs and I love the cinematic style + combat. Anything else similar? I've already played Nier which I really liked. I've tried Sekiro but it just feels too slow + story is boring. Also tried wukong but no satisfying parry mechanic makes it feel less responsive. Everything I see either has no story or no parry mechanic. Just trying to find something before Stellarblade 2 or Phantom Blade 0 comes out lol

How does EVE know what a matryoshka is?

There is this one small interaction in the Matrix 11 sewer that always raised an eyebrow across my multiple playthroughs. When you open one of the gates before the survivors camp checkpoint Adam sighs that it's just more sewer and EVE makes a remark that the situation is like a matryoshka doll. Adam merely replies "What..." in confusion and the dialogue ends. Lily is silent.

What I'm wondering is, how would EVE know what a matroyshka doll is, it's a highly specific piece of knowledge from a culture that is also apparently foreign to Adam as he sounds like he hasn't heard of the phrase himself.

EVE has been characterised as quite ignorant of the surface world and culture, not being familiar with what books, maps, even music even are at the start of the game and even as she progresses through the story we often see this. If this was supposed to show her character growth then why would Adam not comment on it or inquire further? After all we know his motivations so that should be interesting to him. Besides, her new understanding of the human culture is displayed quite well in the shrine anyway as she points it's a place to honour the dead. As far as I can tell none of the side content or any interactions with NPCs could lead EVE to pick up this particular piece of knowledge.

Ultimately I realize it can just be handwaved as a throwaway line but it's surprising to me as otherwise the writing is quite stellar (heh) when it comes to stuff like this. Perhaps it could also be a localisation issue, I'm not sure what they say in Korean but at least Adam's short reply seemed to be the same.

Card game promo items

Okay so sorry how this sounds but, is anyone going to the convention where they are selling these items, because if so I would be so willing to pay for them in full for anyone getting perhaps multiple. Sorry if this sounds like begging, but I am pretty desperate to get this promo merch

Raven

I played the game, 100%, every ending, everything.

I desperately want a game where we play as Raven( same move set she uses on the game) and explains how and what she saw to switch to the Elder side.

I'm using auto loot so I don't miss anything but I'm having a hard time reading it

Is there anyway to slow down how fast the name of the items disappear after you pick them up? I feel like autoloot is better for this game because I can barely see some of the items naturally. I've tried using high contrast but I just wish that they did it with different colors or a little bit less digital being pink or yellow is not what I want just to pick up items and not miss them.. anyways if anybody has any good advice or work arounds I'm down to try it even if it means taken off auto loot , if it helps me see the items better or maybe if they could set it to where the items when they glow leave a taller beam above it that would be maybe nice enough for me to not use auto loot because everything seems to get stuck into the grass.. thanks guys I'm having fun with the game though!

New Game +: Have to do everything again to unlock the upgrades?

I did almost everything on my initial playthrough. If I want to work on unlocking all the upgraded stuff and nano suits, do I essentially have to do all the side quests and explore every nook and cranny again leading up to NG++ and beyond?
