The story aspect of the game has been criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, as developers relied too heavily on player-versus-player interactions instead of investing in single-player content, storytelling, and character development. This has left the narrative feeling underdeveloped and unsatisfying for players seeking a richer gaming experience.
