Users express that the game's replayability is hindered by a lack of customizable settings and a lengthy progression system, making it feel like a tedious experience rather than an engaging one. Suggestions for improvement include adding features to enhance gameplay dynamics and reduce the time required to achieve goals.
“The game feels like a 5-year slog to get everything you want, and the inability to change settings to make it windowed limits my ability to play it on a side monitor.”
“There needs to be a way to shift and select/move pieces, as the current setup makes replaying the game tedious and frustrating.”
“The lack of options to adjust gameplay mechanics makes replayability a chore rather than an enjoyable experience.”
