    • “Currently, the state is of a 2000s PC MMO with 2010s mobile MMO mechanics.”
  • story21 mentions

    The game's story is generally well-received, with players appreciating its engaging narrative and nostalgic elements. However, many users express frustration with the lack of clear instructions, tedious grinding, and the absence of side quests, which detracts from the overall experience. Additionally, technical issues such as lag and problems with the leveling system further hinder players' enjoyment of the story-driven content.

    • “Game is addicting due to its storyline quest, alchemy and boss hunt.”
    • “Nice graphics and story of the game.”
    • “Great experience again can't wait to play... easy NPC during quest and free pets... nice autoplay for us working people... thanks for creating such a nostalgic game...”
    • “No clear instructions in the events and missions.”
    • “Quest NPCs are hard to find, and some quest items are difficult to obtain because the player level is low, but the map to get these items is for high-level players.”
    • “Main quest - hard grind - main quest again - hard grind again, it's boring.”
  • grinding16 mentions

    Players express significant frustration with the grinding mechanics, citing issues such as unbalanced mob difficulty, low drop rates, and a lack of experience gain, particularly after recent updates. Many feel that high-level players dominate low-level areas, making it difficult for newer players to progress, while the game's looting system and overall grindiness detract from the experience. Overall, the grinding aspect is seen as tedious and uninviting, with calls for improvements to enhance player enjoyment.

    • “How could we level fast if our characters are dead on grinding because mobs are too strong, even though our characters are above level 5?”
    • “What makes it not player-friendly is the drop rate; it’s worse compared to other games. High-level players should not receive XP/SP and loot from mobs 7 levels below them, so they do not dominate the grinding zones of low-level players. Additionally, players 20 levels below shouldn't be able to teleport to DW and Hotan; the exploitation is so rampant that they don't even kill the party mobs.”
    • “Hardcore grinding game + pay to win, not recommended for everyone.”
  • optimization9 mentions

    The game's optimization has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with users reporting severe performance issues even on high-spec devices, frequent disconnections, and excessive heat generation. Many players express frustration over the game's bugs and subpar graphics, while a few note that it runs smoothly on certain Android devices. Overall, there is a strong consensus that significant improvements are needed for a better gaming experience.

    • “Plss, I really love the game, but the only problem is optimization.”
    • “Runs smoothly on my Android device.”
    • “Optimized more to experience the smoothness of the game 🥰”
    • “Poorly optimized even on high-spec phones. Also, shop items and subscriptions are pay-to-win. Unless you just want to enjoy PvE, in PvP, if you're free-to-play or a low spender, expect that mid-high spenders will have huge power gaps against you.”
    • “Super bad optimization, super buggy too. It's so bad that my phone is as hot as the sun. Not to mention the graphics are terrible, but it's still bugging creators. What is this piece of trash?”
    • “Poor optimization. I also got disconnected, and no matter which network I use, I cannot log in due to unknown reasons. I use three networks, and they are all working properly, yet this game keeps saying to check my network.”
  • stability5 mentions

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, including frequent freezes, bugs, and glitches that hinder gameplay. Users report poor optimization leading to overheating devices and slow loading times, resulting in a frustrating experience overall.

  • monetization1 mentions

    Players appreciate the game's quality and lack of bugs but express frustration with the monetization model, particularly regarding in-game purchases, indicating a reluctance to spend further due to perceived pay-to-win elements.

    • “I really enjoy the game, but the monetization model could use some adjustments to enhance the experience.”
    • “Overall, it's a great game, but I feel that the in-game purchases could be improved to make it more enjoyable.”
