    The story in Million Arthur is a blend of dialogue-driven narrative and battles, structured into chapters that often prioritize storytelling over combat. While much of the narrative unfolds on a 2D screen with changing avatars and subtitles, it features a humorous and engaging plot reminiscent of slice-of-life anime, focusing on characters vying for kingship through their battles. Although the game includes some 3D animated segments, the majority of the experience is passive, appealing to fans of story-rich JRPGs with its charming characters and quality voice acting.

    • “The game is definitely much more story-focused than I thought; sometimes entire chapters are dedicated purely to the story, and no battles take place. Although you can technically skip those portions and go straight to the fights, there's really no sense in doing that.”
    • “The story portions of the game are akin to a slice-of-life style of anime, with a lot of humor and suggestive comments mixed in with serious moments about a war that is going on.”
    • “I find the story and dialogue very charming, and I really enjoy taking a seat in VR and listening to the various dialogue play out, with a battle here and there where I actually participate.”
    • “The majority of the story portion of the game takes place on a screen in front of you with little more than dialogue and subtitles; there's no animation, just avatars whose expressions change depending on their attitude at the given time, but it doesn't take away from the entertainment if you're into watching subbed animes.”
    • “I got a lot of hours in this, but it's mostly passively watching the story on a 2D screen.”
    • “[b] Story [/b] - you get to read dialogue on a flat 2D screen, and then you fight half of a boss, then read dialogue on a flat 2D screen, then you fight the boss again.”

    The monetization model is criticized for resembling a mobile gacha game, charging $40 upfront while also incorporating microtransactions, leading many to perceive it as a cash grab. Users feel that the pricing structure undermines the game's value, suggesting it would be better received if it were either free with microtransactions or solely priced at $40 without additional costs.

    • “This is set up exactly like a mobile gacha game in PC form that costs $40 and has microtransactions.”
    • “If this were free with microtransactions or $40 without, then I would give it a longer trial, but this stinks of a cash grab.”

    The gameplay features a diverse array of cards, but battles are infrequent, which may discourage players from fully mastering the mechanics. While the gameplay is straightforward, it remains engaging enough to hold players' interest.

    • “The gameplay is quite simple, but interesting enough.”
    • “There are so many different cards that you can use, and battles are infrequent enough that you don't feel pressured to dedicate a lot of time to fully understand the mechanics.”
    • “There are so many different cards that you can use, but battles are so few and far between that you don't really feel like dedicating a lot of time to fully understand the mechanics, since you only engage in a limited number of battles per chapter on average.”
    • “The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks depth, making it hard to stay engaged for long periods.”
    • “The controls are clunky and unresponsive, which detracts from the overall experience and makes battles frustrating.”

    • “The story portions of the game are akin to a slice-of-life style of anime, filled with humor and suggestive comments that are cleverly interwoven with serious moments about the ongoing war.”
  • music1 mentions

    The music in the game is well-received, complementing the engaging story and featuring full Japanese voice acting with subtitles. Players appreciate the nice soundtrack, which enhances the overall experience, especially during interactive battle segments.

    • “The story is pretty interesting with full Japanese voice acting and subtitles, complemented by nice music and occasional interactive battle parts.”
  • grinding1 mentions

    Players note that while many gacha games are free but heavily rely on grinding to encourage spending, this particular game charges a $40 upfront fee, raising questions about the necessity and extent of grinding in the gameplay experience.

    • “Usually, gacha games are free to install and grindy as hell to try to pry open your wallet, but here they're charging $40 upfront.”
    • “The grinding in this game feels excessive and tedious, making it hard to enjoy the overall experience.”
    • “I found myself spending hours on repetitive tasks just to progress, which really took away from the fun.”
  • character development1 mentions

    While the map and character designs are visually appealing, the character development itself is lacking, leaving players wanting more depth and growth in the characters.
