The primary risk in Sin & Punishment: Star Successor is its high level of violence, featuring constant shooting and destruction in a post-apocalyptic setting. While not graphic, the pervasive combat might be overstimulating for some. The fast-paced nature and near-miss mechanics could also contribute to a sense of heightened arousal, which some players might find intense.
