The monetization of the game is criticized as a cash grab, with users advising potential buyers to reconsider unless they have a group of friends to play with, as it may not be worth the investment otherwise. Additionally, the lack of updated support information on the developer's website raises concerns about their commitment to the game's community.
“The developer's website is not even up to date with their own email for tech support. In my opinion, this game is a cash grab for the developers. Don't buy it unless you know six people will play it with you; otherwise, it's a waste of money.”
“The monetization strategy feels exploitative, with prices that are far too high for the content offered.”
“I was disappointed to find that many features are locked behind paywalls, making it hard to enjoy the game without spending extra money.”
