The game's story is criticized for its lack of depth and engaging narrative, focusing primarily on traditional MMO quest mechanics rather than a cohesive overarching plot. Players find the quests tedious and poorly designed, often requiring excessive grinding and offering minimal direction, which detracts from the overall experience. Despite the potential for rich lore, the execution leaves much to be desired, leading to frustration rather than immersion.
“Immersive gameplay: engaging storylines and rich lore keep you hooked.”
“It is truly a shame as quests exploring the Hindu concepts and mythos displayed throughout the game could have been so interesting and easy to become invested in.”
“The storytelling aspect is minimal, focusing more on gameplay mechanics.”
“Even if they weren't poorly translated, it wouldn't change much as the actual content of the quests is extremely trite.”
“Seeing as this is an old-school MMORPG, I was hoping that the quests being weak was a sign the game world was going to be ripe for exploration.”

The gameplay is characterized by traditional MMO mechanics focused on combat, exploration, and character progression, but suffers from a lack of depth and balance, leading to repetitive encounters and minimal player expression. While some players appreciate the nostalgic elements and smooth controls, many criticize the game for its mechanical issues, boring drops, and a lack of engaging content, resulting in an overall uninspired experience. The combination of technical problems and a weak narrative further detracts from the enjoyment, leaving players feeling frustrated with the grind.
“The game offers traditional MMO gameplay with a focus on combat, exploration, and character progression.”
“Smooth mechanics: easy-to-use controls and seamless gameplay make it enjoyable.”
“Gameplay is the kind I like from the early 2000s, the golden age of MMOs.”
“There is no discernible balance or logic to the core mechanics.”
“The gameplay is broken severely by this 'nerve' property of the player's character, which controls accuracy and dodge rates.”
“With a world that leaves little to explore, repetitive encounters, and low player expression via character building or mechanics, the grind simply isn't fun.”

The graphics of the game have received mixed to negative reviews, with many players criticizing them as outdated and not meeting modern standards, particularly in comparison to other current MMOs. While some appreciate the beautiful visuals and detailed environments, others find the overall quality lacking, with issues such as low resolution, clunky interfaces, and technical problems detracting from the experience. Overall, significant improvements are needed to elevate the visual presentation and stability of the game.
“Stunning graphics: beautiful visuals and detailed environments enhance the experience.”
“The graphics are as advertised on the pics and the locations are as void from great atmosphere as it goes, but, it is a real MMORPG with distinct classes, party play, character building (skill points and attribute points), low input lag, and open world.”
“Artwork is decent, though the animations are a bit novice.”
“Let's start with the graphics: awful.”
“Some players feel that the visuals are outdated compared to other current MMOs.”
“Graphics look like they're from the 90s - this is supposed to be in Unreal Engine?”

Overall, the consensus suggests that while grinding is integral to the experience, it may require adjustments to enhance player satisfaction.
“They don't care if you're playing or not; all they care about is people suffering from grinding.”
“You spend an hour grinding 5% just to lose it all to death?”
“The grinding is too much.”

Overall, players express disappointment with the game's optimization, noting persistent performance issues such as stuttering and poor gameplay smoothness despite having capable hardware. Many had hoped for improvements since early access, but the game's performance remains a significant drawback.
“Nice game bringing the classic MMORPG; it just needs more optimization to smoothen the gameplay, but overall I love it.”
“At first I was really excited to play the game; it brought back a lot of memories. However, it all shattered when I logged into the game and it seemed to be stuttering.”
“I've been looking forward to playing this for a while now. I got accepted into early access a while ago and had performance issues. I was hoping with the open beta it would be better, but it still runs awful. Given I have an old computer (i7 4820k, 1070, 32GB DDR3 RAM), the performance of this game is still insanely bad.”
“I'm not sure if it's an optimization issue or what the problem is.”

The game's music and sound effects are generally considered adequate but unremarkable, with reports of persistent audio playback even when settings are adjusted to mute.

“Even the loading screen and menu keep playing music, even though you've set the value to 0.”
“The feeling of emptiness is made much worse by the fact the game lacks ambient sounds, and music plays for the first minute you log in then stops completely.”
“You have to reboot the entire game for it to go into action, but even the loading screen and menu keeps on playing music, even though you've set the value to 0.”
“You turn everything to 0 and it still plays sounds and music.”

The monetization aspect of the game is currently non-existent, with users expressing skepticism about its legitimacy and potential future cash grab tactics, suggesting it may be a remastered version of 'Tantra Online' created by inexperienced developers.
“Steer away from this shite; most likely this is run by a group of kids trying to make a quick cash grab from a leaked source code.”
“That sounds like a quick cash grab.”
“I never played the game 'Tantra Online', which this game apparently emerged from, nor is there any form of cash grab.”
