The game's story is a mixed bag, with some players enjoying its quirky humor and engaging quests, while others criticize its brevity and lack of depth. While the beautiful scenery and combat are praised, significant bugs can hinder progress, leading to frustration and uncertainty about the game's value.

“But there are however other reported bugs that unfortunately put the players' entire work and effort on halt (sometimes permanently) because of a bug in the storyline that doesn't allow their game to progress.”
“This sets a standard where players need to decide whether or not it's worth buying the game knowing that their entire story progress can be for nothing all because of an error the developers overlooked.”
“The story is very short - well, actually there is no real story (except for an intro and an ending clip) - but you have to do several quests, earn money for better equipment and skill points to beat the game.”
