grinding8 negative mentions
  • Deep and engaging idle RPG with a wide variety of systems including combat, crafting, gathering, talent trees, and mercenaries, providing meaningful progression and customization.
  • Active and responsive developers frequently updating the game, taking community feedback seriously, and showing commitment to ongoing development during Early Access.
  • Good balance of automation and player involvement, allowing players to customize combat, crafting, and gathering, with solid offline progression making it accessible for casual play.
  • The game suffers from poor endgame design with unbalanced progression, lack of meaningful challenge, and many systems becoming irrelevant or trivial once endgame is reached.
  • User interface issues include overly complex menus, small text, inconsistent scrolling, and a cluttered layout that detracts from the overall experience.
  • Recent updates and the full 1.0 release felt rushed and lacked meaningful content or patch notes, with signs of developer abandonment leading to lack of trust in the game's future.

  • gameplay

    28 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    18% positive mentions, 68% neutral mentions, 14% negative mentions

    The gameplay offers a wide array of interconnected systems and character customization options that provide a promising and engaging foundation, blending MMO, Diablo-style, and idle mechanics. However, progression is often seen as slow or shallow, with repetitive and sometimes incoherent mechanics, inconsistent balancing, and a lack of depth or compelling gameplay loops. Frequent updates and developer responsiveness show potential for improvement, but the current experience can feel cumbersome or bland for some players.

    • “Character progression extends well beyond leveling, with expansive talent trees, elemental enhancements, equipment upgrades, gem socketing, engravings, and unique soulbound mechanics that encourage experimentation.”
    • “Together, these interconnected systems create a satisfying gameplay loop where nearly every activity contributes to overall progression.”
    • “Great game, gathering or harvesting can be done during combat allowing dynamic gameplay.”
    • “My advice to the developers, if they're willing to listen, would be to stop vibe-coding away at the game, sit down and draft out the gameplay loop, the formulas for the various stats, and what the game progression should look like.”
    • “So while the game itself wasn’t necessarily terrible, the combination of the tedious gameplay, questionable design decisions, and the way criticism is handled has completely killed my interest in continuing to support it.”
    • “Everything is the most bland version possible: the enemies are all generically the same (except for different AI art), none of the systems evoke any emotion, there isn't any story or lore to speak of, and every mechanical system just feels like it's a different combat optimization path.”

  • grinding

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game has mixed feedback: while some find it engaging and rewarding with thoughtful progression and customizable templates, others feel it is tedious, overly time-consuming, and simplistic in design. The repetitive nature and cumbersome menus contribute to a less enjoyable grinding experience for some players.

    • “It's about grinding monsters as fast as possible, where you are trying to kill mobs in 2-3 seconds through haste scaling and a few autos.”
    • “Way too much stuff to sift through and you need to click multiple times through multiple menus just to gather or craft something; it feels tedious.”
    • “The equipment affixes and attributes are somewhat simplistic, making the grinding experience less rewarding.”

  • graphics

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    33% positive mentions, 17% neutral mentions, 50% negative mentions

    The graphics offer a visually appealing and spacious design that initially impresses, though their AI-generated nature becomes more noticeable over time, revealing limitations beyond just visuals. While some users appreciate the game's aesthetic and potential, the current use of temporary AI artwork is expected to be replaced with original illustrations in future updates. Overall, the improved graphics are seen as a positive step compared to similar games.

    • “I like this game, it’s Melvor Idle, with better graphics, and clearer instructions.”
    • “A big expanded view of big graphics and spaced out options is nice to look at for the first minute - but it doesn't work for long-term play.”
    • “Gave the game its fair chance, but it's obviously AI slop on many levels way beyond the visuals.”
    • “While AI visuals are the first thing you notice, and while you may believe it's a real developer behind it for a while, it stops being believable as you notice baffling decision after baffling decision, pointless stuff after pointless stuff, and moronic thing after moronic thing.”
    • “The developers have also been transparent about the temporary inclusion of some AI-generated artwork, with plans to replace those assets with original illustrations as development continues.”

  • monetization

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    40% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 60% negative mentions

    The game adopts a player-friendly monetization model that avoids microtransactions, favoring a premium purchase which ensures progression feels rewarding and based on time and strategy rather than extra spending. This approach enhances long-term engagement and is praised in contrast to quick cash-grab tactics.

    • “Its premium model, which avoids microtransactions, gives progression a more rewarding pace and ensures that advancement comes from time invested and thoughtful decision-making rather than additional purchases.”
    • “Its combination of extensive character customization, rewarding progression systems, diverse endgame content, detailed crafting, flexible automation, and player-friendly monetization creates an experience that remains engaging long after the opening hours.”
    • “Just a quick cash grab, do not buy”
    • “Cash grabbed by vibe coding, tough.”

  • story

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    20% positive mentions, 20% neutral mentions, 60% negative mentions

    The game either lacks a meaningful story or has minimal narrative elements, leading to a less rewarding and emotionally engaging experience. While some progression systems hint at potential, the absence of a compelling story or lore makes the gameplay feel generic and unmotivated.

    • “Story progression leads players through dangerous environments before opening access to increasingly difficult dungeons, nightmare dungeons, endless tower challenges, and the spire, where tarot-based modifiers introduce fresh strategic considerations to each run.”
    • “While it has potential, the lack of any story makes the incremental no longer feel rewarding.”
    • “There is also no story or reason to do anything; this just copies systems from other idle games and packages them in a slopfest of UX.”
    • “Everything is the most bland version possible: the enemies are all generically the same (except for different AI art), none of the systems evoke any emotion, there isn't any story or lore to speak of, and every mechanical system just feels like it's a different combat optimization path.”

  • character development

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game offers a well-designed character development system that remains engaging over many hours, emphasizing strategic progression and rewarding thoughtful planning instead of repetitive grinding.

    • “This layered progression keeps character development engaging over dozens of hours, rewarding careful planning rather than mindless grinding.”
    • “A great game for your selected character development.”

  • optimization

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The optimization aspect offers various damage build paths, though some require further refinement. However, the game’s systems feel generic and lack emotional engagement, with combat focused mainly on mechanical optimization rather than depth or narrative.

    • “Lots of different damage build paths you can go, but some do need a little optimization, in my opinion.”
    • “Everything is the most bland version possible: the enemies are all generically the same (except for different AI art), none of the systems evoke any emotion, there isn't any story or lore to speak of, and every mechanical system just feels like it's a different combat optimization path.”

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The humor is highlighted by the barbarian class receiving numerous strength buffs that ultimately prove useless, creating a funny and ironic situation.

  • music

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The music is chill and relaxing, providing a balanced background that allows for both focused engagement and casual, passive listening while working.
