The story aspect of "Redemption: Eternal Quest" is criticized for its lack of depth and coherence, with procedurally generated plots that often feel disjointed and arbitrary. Players express frustration over the absence of meaningful context for quests, which leads to a sense of randomness rather than a cohesive narrative progression. While there are moments of character development and internal team dynamics, the overall experience lacks a compelling overarching plot, making it feel more like a management simulation than a traditional RPG.
- “There actually was a semblance of a story unfolding, as well as other events such as internal strife within my team of adventurers that I could not quell, so I recant to a minor degree my complaint of it lacking RPG elements proclaimed in the game’s description.”
- “I was hoping to experience the perspective of the king who gives out a quest to a group of heroes and then listens to the tales of glory and danger once the heroes return victorious.”
- “Redemption: Eternal Quest is a text-based game with a team of warriors that fight and adventure on behalf of the player in a fantasy management game, the player can have up to six warriors at a time on the roster and send up to four of them on each adventure to find hidden treasure, ancient places of power, monsters to fight, and many more interesting random events which can be both good or bad.”
- “The quests themselves are either a direct result with no options or contain a single choice, which limits the storytelling potential.”
- “There is no sense of connection between the different quests; it all feels very random and lacks context.”
- “Your adventures pretty much just do their thing; there's no real goal or overarching plot, and most of the stuff that happens is arbitrary.”

- “Either you just get a story reported back, you enter a card game driven battle (simple mechanics of picking 1 out of 3 support cards to play), you get to choose a path to take, whether to open a chest or not, and in some cases this game turns into the TV show 'Strike It Lucky' - choose 'top, middle or bottom' across 3 columns, and try to avoid the 'hot spot' aka trap.”
