The game's story is minimal and lacks depth, with many players noting that it feels more like a collection of generic quests rather than a cohesive narrative. While there are unique quests available, the overall quest structure is repetitive and does not provide significant rewards, leading to a sense of grind rather than engagement. As the game is still in early access, players hope for future updates to enhance the story and quest offerings.
“But with that said, even as solo, the game has a lot to offer: a really deep user interface, which is awesome, and a lot of unique quests that are completely solo-able.”
“Going into the guild and picking up the same paper as my friend and talking about the quest was fantastic.”
“Currently, the mission offering is fairly limited, and you'll be able to play through/gear up in about the amount of playtime I have now (5 hours or so) -- despite what other reviews say, I have seen other people online; however, I feel this game would feel best if you had your own friend(s) to play with.”
“The developers took a different route, and it is no longer a monster hunter type game but more of a Dragon Quest type game, and that isn't what I paid for.”
“The game switched the gameplay from old-school monster hunter-esque quests to a rather bland and generic turn-based system.”

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying the fun and interactive mechanics, while others criticize the shift to a bland turn-based system lacking essential features like dodging or blocking. Although the core gameplay loop is manageable and social interactions are enjoyable, many feel that the game needs significant improvements in combat mechanics and overall depth to maintain player interest. Additionally, the game's short length and limited multiplayer options have raised concerns about its long-term viability.
“Has a long way to go in terms of graphical fidelity/animations, but the gameplay is genuinely fun, which is most important.”
“The core gameplay is pretty nice, especially with the social aspect in mind.”
“The first 30 minutes of gameplay was fun though :)”
“Dev switched the gameplay from old school Monster Hunter-esque quests to a rather bland and generic turn-based system.”
“You then receive a round of damage from the enemies to which currently there is no dodge mechanic (repeat until enemies are defeated or you are defeated).”
“With some adjustments to the combat, either with a block or dodge mechanic and the implementation of throwing spells, I believe it would make all the difference within the turn-based combat system's playability.”

The game's stability is heavily criticized, with users reporting numerous bugs, glitches, and poor combat controls that lead to frustrating gameplay experiences. Many players experienced issues such as getting stuck on invisible objects, disappearing items, and a lack of clear instructions, indicating that the game is still in a problematic early access state. Overall, the stability is described as extremely janky and unreliable.
“Very bad combat controls, constantly getting stuck on invisible objects. It's early access, so it's going to be buggy.”
“Extremely jank and buggy.”
“Absolutely awful. 30 minutes in and it was nonstop bugs, glitches, and UI problems. From everything I gathered, weapons and tools were disappearing off my back and belt. The weapon grabbing is awful and difficult. I completed a quest, and the game gave no instruction on how to even turn it in. Hell, even starting it took me 10 minutes to figure out.”
