However, several users report performance issues, including lag and bugs, particularly on mobile devices, which detracts from the overall experience.

“The graphics are beautiful, the quests keep me busy, and I just love that you can fully customize your character!”
“The graphics are the best part about this game.”
“The graphics are mind-blowing... really an awesome take on Android and iOS with heavy data.”
“The character models look atrocious, going for an uncanny semi-realistic look (it should look more like the anime-style 2D artworks of the characters shown in the game's menus).”
“The graphics are horrible; there are no proper stunt movements unlike Dragon Raja.”
“The game is based on a very good concept, but the characters are janky and the graphics are not up to 2022 standards; it feels like I'm playing a PS3 game.”

The story in the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many players describing it as confusing, disjointed, and poorly executed. Issues such as rushed pacing, lack of character development, and subpar voice acting contribute to a narrative that fails to engage players, leading many to skip dialogue entirely. While some appreciate the game's graphics and gameplay mechanics, the consensus is that the storyline needs significant improvement to enhance the overall experience.
“Massively detailed full open world you can explore at your own pace with tons of content, interesting story, vibrant characters, stunning gameplay including the ability to fly with a jetpack, horse taming, hitching a ride on a steam train and loads of combos to mix up with each phantom 10/10.”
“Beautiful graphics, awesome story line.”
“I love this game; the graphics are completely gorgeous, the voice audio is mid, but the storyline/lore is really interesting.”
“The story feels rushed, hard to follow, and jarring.”
“The story is so badly written, PvP doesn't work for no reason, quests and side quests are random and have nothing to do with the story.”
“Please tell me what I've seen so far isn't the actual game... nothing makes sense, the story is boring, everything happens so fast I was left completely confused and had no idea what's going on.”

“Very bad controls for PC and gameplay is just miserable.”

The game's optimization has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with players reporting significant performance issues, including lag, low frame rates, and graphical glitches. Many users express frustration over the game's inability to run smoothly even on high-end devices, suggesting that it requires extensive bug fixing and optimization to enhance the overall experience.

“The graphics are very good and even my not so powerful processor can run it smoothly in HD graphics. Thanks, dev, for the optimization.”
“Game optimization - smooth framing (I know you guys already know about it and have been working on it, so good luck :) )”
“Love the gameplay but needs more optimization 😕 (and please add 60, 90, 120 fps too.)”
“Buggy and unoptimized, with plenty of 3D clipping and voice lines missing/skipped over.”
“Weak and chaotic story and some of the worst optimization I have seen since not a single device, emulated or physical, could handle the game's default graphics settings.”
“The game is very poorly optimized; as a veteran Genshin player, you can't enjoy this game if you have played Genshin because the mechanics of this game are top-tier trash compared to Genshin, so don't waste your time and data on downloading this nearly 5GB trash.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players praising the soundtrack as beautiful and soothing, while others criticize it for being repetitive and not fitting the game's mood or scenes.

“The two things going for it are the soundtrack and the cute emotes.”
“Arena is addictive and the music is out of this world!”
“Great game, don't listen to people; this game has massive, beautifully done music.”
“Also, the music loops instead of changing to another track, which makes it annoying.”
“My only con is I wish the music in-game would fit the mood, like while airborne, in combat, or even riding the horse.”
“Lot of efforts put into the game, very generous in rewards; my only concern is the music—it's very bad. I wish I could use Dragon Raja's BGM here because that's awesome, but the music in this game is very bad.”

The monetization of the game is widely criticized as predatory and heavily reliant on microtransactions, with many players feeling misled by its advertising. Users describe it as a cash grab, featuring unreasonably expensive in-game purchases and a focus on autoplay mechanics rather than engaging gameplay. Overall, the game is perceived as unoriginal and exploitative, prioritizing profit over player experience.
“Other than that it's a completely unoriginal MMO that can autoplay itself and is filled with microtransactions.”
“Monetization is abysmal.”
“There are many aspects which make this game forgettable - clunky fighting mechanics, unreasonably expensive in-game purchases, cluttered and overly expansive map, and way too many things to take care of on a daily basis.”
“It has potential but probably the devs won't change a thing which is pretty common for mobile titles, just a cash grab.”
“It is just another generic mobile MMO with a generic story, autoplay, clunky combat, and tons of microtransactions shoved in your face.”

Character development in the game is noted to be lacking, with many players expressing confusion over the story and feeling that character arcs are underdeveloped. While the character design and visuals are praised, issues such as poor voice acting and technical glitches detract from the overall experience. Despite these shortcomings, some players appreciate the potential for deeper character development and engaging gameplay.
“A deep character development system.”
“The world and character design is nice with some fun dungeons.”
“The voice acting is really bad, but that's one of the reasons why I love this game, alongside the beautiful graphics and varied character design choices.”
“Need to improve bugs, character movement, and character design. It would be better to add some legendary, mythic, and ancient heroes. Playing with four characters would be better, like Genshin and the dark world of Diablo Immortal.”
“Couldn't get past character design. I uninstalled and reinstalled it multiple times; it just won't let me play. I'm really disappointed because it looked like so much fun.”

The emotional aspect of the game is largely criticized for its lack of engaging storytelling and repetitive gameplay, with many users finding the narrative boring and the quests uninteresting. The slow start, complex controls, and reliance on auto features contribute to a sense of detachment, making it difficult for players to connect with the game on an emotional level. Overall, the feedback suggests a significant need for improvement in the game's narrative and quest design to enhance player engagement.
“Slow start, long tutorial, and a very complex button layout. The storyline is boring as well, and it feels like a future pay-to-win game.”
“Auto quest, auto battle, only 4 classes, and a solo game with a boring story.”
“Boring, with too many unimportant quests and a tedious storyline. There are 100 options for 'ok' or 'not ok,' but only 1 boring quest.”

The humor in the game is characterized by the fully voiced gacha characters, whose poor voice acting often adds to the comedic effect, despite being subpar. Players find the humor to be a highlight, complementing the beautiful graphics and engaging story, although some technical issues, like voice lines cutting off, detract from the overall experience.
“Fully voiced gacha characters (most are awful but hilarious), great combat, gorgeous graphics with a huge map and hundreds of secrets to explore, movement system with grappling hook, jetpack and glider.”
“Voice acting was subpar but somewhat funny because of it.”
“Beautiful, funny, and great story.”

Players have mixed feelings about the grinding aspect of the game; while some enjoy the progression and find it engaging, others are frustrated by the fatigue system that limits energy for quests and the necessity to complete certain tasks to advance the story. Additionally, technical issues like FPS drops and bugs can detract from the overall experience.
“The fatigue system consumes energy in story or quests rather than only farming (like in Genshin). Struggling to move between mouse and keyboard, and generally having FPS issues, it did get a bit annoying. Some of the quests I just left, but I cannot progress the story without completing them. There are also some bugs.”
“Grinding feels tedious and repetitive, making it hard to stay engaged with the game. I often find myself doing the same tasks over and over again just to level up, which can be frustrating.”
“The amount of grinding required to progress is overwhelming. It feels like a chore rather than an enjoyable part of the game, and it detracts from the overall experience.”
