The monetization in the game features microtransactions primarily for cosmetic items, pets, and classes, which many players find acceptable as it does not significantly impact gameplay. However, there are mixed opinions, with some labeling it a cash grab and expressing concerns about aggressive monetization practices, especially in late-game content. Overall, while some players appreciate the optional nature of purchases, others feel that the monetization detracts from the experience, particularly for fans of the original series.
“The game is good and I can look over the in-game purchases, since it's not pay-to-win (like Diablo).”
“It's a decent ARPG, and it's blessedly light on microtransactions/p2w; no need to pay to experience all of the content.”
“The monetization doesn't get in the way of gameplay whatsoever, I'm so glad they decided to make a good game first and not just a shameless money grab.”
“Would have been fun without the poor monetization, bad servers, and lack of features.”
“It's quite clear within 60 seconds of launching this game that the entire purpose is to rope you into microtransactions.”

The reviews indicate that grinding in the game is a mixed experience; while some players find it rewarding and enjoyable, especially in the late game, others criticize it for being overly repetitive and lacking meaningful rewards.

Overall, the game's grind is seen as a significant aspect that can either enhance or detract from the overall enjoyment, depending on individual preferences.
“It's fun and not grindy like other dungeon crawler games.”
“Grinding is okay if it's rewarding, which is not the case for this game.”
“Deducted a whole star for one-dimensional farming endgame; it just gets more and more boring with each repeat of a map.”
“Honestly pretty fun, but a terrible fourth act and an absolute mess of bloated systems drags this game down to an incredibly boring and grindy endgame.”
