- “The story seems bland, character development is hardly present, and while leveling feels solid, I can't tell how much the stats and abilities upgrade or matter.”

Confrontation Review
The main problem with Confrontation is that it's too basic, and does nothing to set itself apart in the genre, and combined with low production values, you have a recipe for mediocrity.
