The gameplay of "Fellowship" has received mixed reviews, with many players praising its engaging dungeon mechanics and the satisfying core gameplay loop reminiscent of World of Warcraft's mythic+ system. While the dungeons are noted for their unique mechanics and the game allows for quick, action-oriented sessions, players have expressed frustration with the community's toxicity, particularly towards newcomers struggling to learn mechanics. Additionally, server issues and a lack of in-game tutorials have hindered the overall experience, leading to a challenging environment for those unfamiliar with the genre. Overall, the game shows promise but requires further refinement and community support to enhance the gameplay experience.
- “From the boss mechanics to teamwork, DPS feels good, healers actually heal, and tanks still have an important role.”
- “The gameplay is really good, and the dungeons are fairly well balanced.”
- “The core gameplay is fun, especially moment-to-moment.”
- “The powers were uninteresting, the forced 4-man gameplay was annoying, the heroes and classes aren't fun or exciting.”
- “Being pulled back by dps that refuse to interrupt, tanks that can't manage cooldowns, healers that don't have enough gear to pass healing checks, or people generally not knowing the mechanics of the fights is extremely frustrating.”
- “The gameplay loop is you pick a hero with a rotation you like, you find a party of people that know how to play already, beat the dungeon, spend tokens and customize your appearance, do it all again.”

Players appreciate the focus on dungeon runs and gear progression without the extensive time commitment typical of traditional MMOs, making it accessible for those with limited playtime.

- “Progression is rewarding and not tedious.”
- “No grinding, no filler, just pure teamwork and dungeon adventure.”
- “It's basically mythic+ from modern WoW, but no tedious leveling process, just straight into the dungeons.”
- “To play at that level with a full-time job meant all free time had to go to the game, but most of the time you didn't actually play mythic+, the fun part; you just spent time grinding through repetitive boring activities to be able to play what you enjoyed at that level.”
- “You will be grinding the same few dungeons over and over again, and while you could say that this is in fact the point of the game, it still does lack in variety quite a bit.”
- “Grinding for months to get the gear/build you want, only to have everything reset really, really sucks.”
