grinding

The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized for being excessively slow, tedious, and time-consuming, with players noting that leveling up relies heavily on gear upgrades rather than experience gained from combat. Many feel that the high costs associated with upgrades and the limited rewards from quests contribute to a frustrating experience, often leading to a sense of chore-like gameplay. Additionally, the game's reliance on time-gated mechanics and a perceived pay-to-win model further exacerbate the grinding issues, making progress feel unsatisfying and overly reliant on monetary investment.
- “It's slow and tedious to level up, and everything is too expensive on a budget.”
- “I'm not one to complain about a good grind, but the lack of content and extremely slow leveling (levels are based only on gear score, not any kind of experience gained by fighting) make the game tedious and chore-like.”
- “This game is bad; it is a pay-to-play kind of game. Grinding in this game means months of work just to reach the next level. The quests stop after a short few levels, and the best gear is mostly hidden in PvP areas, where you lose almost all of it if you die once. The amount of gold and points needed to level up gear and abilities is super high, and the daily rewards won't even cover what it takes to do so.”

Many users feel that the game leans towards a "cash grab" model, with repetitive gameplay and a lack of engaging content, despite being free to play. Overall, while there are no intrusive ads, the monetization strategy may detract from the overall experience for some players.
- “No ads either.”
- “Graphics are cute, fully free to play, no ads.”
- “Way too much monetization.”
- “Yes, it does require in-game purchases in order to compete and win against fellow players.”
- “You click on 'auto walk' quest, skip all dialog and repeat; you don't even need to play, it does it for you... this game joins the ranks of a cash grab boring game like everything else.”
