The story aspect of Royal Quest Online is criticized for being largely composed of repetitive "fetch" quests that lack depth and engagement, leaving players feeling unfulfilled. While the game offers a colorful world and various quests, many players find the narrative elements weak and the overall quest design grindy, with little incentive to explore beyond the basic mechanics. Despite these shortcomings, some players appreciate the nostalgic feel and community aspects of the game, suggesting it may still appeal to fans of classic MMORPGs.

- “Royal Quest online is an engaging MMORPG with an interesting world and mechanics, worthy of attention from both newcomers and experienced players.”
- “Almost 3 hours in, I feel I achieved nothing, got nothing, read meaningless quests, and ran around a few maps without even being challenged once or presented with a cool concept or game mechanic.”
- “It tries to emulate old-school RPG leveling mechanics where you grind monsters endlessly to level up with a sprinkle of quests in between, except the game omitted the critical feature of having these monsters drop interesting loot every once in a while.”
- “Game play is bad really and there's no story at all.”

The monetization of the game has drawn mixed reviews, with some players labeling it a "cash grab" and criticizing its pay-to-win (p2w) elements, while others find it fair and comparable to established titles like Guild Wars 2 and Elder Scrolls Online, offering inventory expansions and cosmetic options. Despite the presence of microtransactions, some users note that they do not create severe imbalances in gameplay.
- “The monetization is fair and consistent with games like Guild Wars 2, Elder Scrolls Online, or Black Desert, where you have a wealth of inventory and vault expansion capabilities, some premium XP, and a lot of cosmetics.”

- “This game is marred with microtransactions, considering it pay-to-win, rather than free-to-play.”

grinding
4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive, with a gold economy that feels overpriced and potions that are largely ineffective due to long cooldowns. While the mechanics for mob aggro and kiting are appreciated, the overall experience is marred by a lack of engaging story and a bland world, making the grind feel less rewarding. However, some users still consider it a decent option for a free-to-play game.
- “So grindy and the main game gold economy is overpriced. Potions (health and mana) are worthless with a 1-minute cooldown, so what's the point? The mob aggro range is cool and kite range is good at higher levels, making it easy to get groups set for AoE, but enemy attack range is poor; they can still hit you (melee mobs) 1-3 character lengths back. The world seems bland, lacking any real point or fulfillment of story. It's just here, but for a free-to-play game, I'd say it's worth a try.”
- “Very grindy!”
- “The grinding aspect is overwhelming and detracts from the overall experience.”
