The game's story aspect is largely criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, with many players expressing a desire for a more substantial narrative. While the quest system offers a variety of missions and monster-catching opportunities, it often feels repetitive and simplistic, leading to a sense of boredom.

- “Amazing, great graphics, good storyline.”

- “I wish there was an actual story to it though; I really enjoy the game but feel there needs to be easier ways to acquire honor medals/points to get decent characters as a beginner, and I feel there should be some sort of story element or undertones, at least.”
- “Easily this game is one of the worst games they made when it comes to combat and story.”
- “Most disappointing thing is it has no story.”
- “The tutorial consists of you pressing your quest button a little faster each time as the sound effects and animation are short bursts of sound and a stock painting that in no way represents adventure.”
