Multiplayer ranks 339th of 692, Tech & Support ranks 37th of 1523 and Pricing & Fairness ranks 293rd of 1523, and a few say it is not pay to win.

👎 Where it falls short

46 reviews find the quests and combat repetitive, describing fetch quests with the same objectives and the same monsters fought with the same abilities. Content Volume ranks 1354th of 1471. 42 criticize the monetization, citing a cosmetic shop with costly bundles, a premium pass for full access and speed boosts sold for money. 29 dislike the controls and feel, with some mentioning skills that cannot be rebound, a small inventory and a mobile style interface on PC.
