The grinding aspect of the game is a major point of contention among players, with many expressing frustration over its repetitive and time-consuming nature. While some enjoy the grind as a core element of the RPG experience, others find it tedious and feel that the game's economy and loot drop rates make progress feel unrewarding, often leading to a pay-to-win perception. Overall, the grinding is seen as excessive, with players noting that it can take years to catch up to others, and many feel that the fun has diminished due to the focus on farming over exploration and engaging gameplay.
“The game features three well-balanced classes and offers a variety of activities like PvP, crafting, and events, making the grinding experience enjoyable and not overly tedious.”
“I appreciate that the game isn't grindy and allows for a smooth experience without lag, which keeps me engaged for longer periods.”
“The inclusion of a guild system, pet system, and auction house adds depth to the grinding experience, making it feel rewarding and dynamic.”
“If you start the game at this point, catching up with capped players is practically impossible unless you give a year or two of grinding for experience, gear, and gold.”
“That's basically the gist of this entire game; a never-ending cycle of monotonous farming.”
“Grinding for max level is repetitive and boring; most players are die-hard toxic fools who wasted their lives with the huge paywall this game has.”

The monetization model of the game has received significant criticism, with many players labeling it as a cash grab due to overpriced in-app purchases and ineffective free platinum offers. While some appreciate the absence of intrusive ads, the overall sentiment suggests that the high costs and limited rewards from microtransactions detract from the gaming experience, leading to frustration among both new and long-time players. Despite its potential, the lack of balance in monetization has left many feeling that the game prioritizes profit over player satisfaction.
“Also it has no ads, barely any mobile games without ads.”
“Love this game, there are also no ads.”
“Very strong monetization - playing with elixirs makes this game more fun, but you need money for it.”
“Microtransactions really ruined this game; it's a free fun game, but the business model is bad.”
“Cash grab and kind of pay-to-win; the community is still great, but the developers didn't even add new features, classes, or customization after 5 or 6 years.”
“The in-app purchases offer too little for too much.”
