The graphics in this game have been universally criticized as subpar, with many reviewers describing them as resembling "ms-paint garbage." The visuals are considered so poorly executed that they detract significantly from the overall experience, making it one of the worst-looking games on Steam. While some acknowledge that the art style may be intentional, it still fails to resonate positively with players.
- “The graphics aren't my style either, but I realize the graphics are meant to look this way.”
- “This was a really badly made pay-to-win arena brawler that looks like an RTS, but it's really a competition around who can pay the developer the most money to unlock the most powerful classes. Usually with these kinds of pay-to-win scams, they at least invest in a few decent game visuals, but here it's all MS Paint garbage. What a weird way to try to run a scam.”
- “In terms of visuals, this features really godawful MS Paint tier 'art' instead of real graphics.”
- “The graphics here are particularly awful, so bad that it actually stands out as one of the worst looking games on Steam.”

The monetization model of the game heavily relies on mobile-style microtransactions, leading to concerns about a pay-to-win dynamic where paying players gain access to exclusive classes. Many players feel that a one-time purchase model would have been preferable, ensuring a level playing field for all users. Overall, the current monetization strategy detracts from the gaming experience.
- “Instead of making these microtransactions, they should have made the game cost some money and given you everything with it so all who got the game can be on an equal playing field.”
- “This game is infested with mobile app store-like microtransactions.”
- “Instead of implementing these microtransactions, they should have made the game cost some money and provided everything with it so that all players can be on an equal playing field.”
- “If the combat is reworked and the microtransactions are removed, I would play this game again.”

The game's story is perceived as a significant investment, with players anticipating a lengthy completion time of around 1200 hours, potentially extending to over 3000 hours due to its engaging nature. However, some feel that the reliance on player interactions may detract from traditional storytelling and level design elements.

- “The developer gambled that other players would be an acceptable substitute for adding storytelling, level design, etc. to the game.”
- “The story of this game I predict will likely take about 1200 hours for me to fully complete, but I know that I will likely spend well over 3000 due to the great nature of this game.”
