The game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it bland and convoluted, particularly in the early hours, while others appreciate its unique detective elements and engaging side quests. Although the main plot is linear and occasionally feels unfinished or poorly executed, many players enjoy the mystery and drama woven into the wuxia backdrop. Overall, the narrative has potential but suffers from inconsistencies and a lack of depth in certain areas.
“The story is interesting.”
“I think it felt more like a mystery, drama story at its core while in a wuxia backdrop, so the wuxia theme becomes not the main focus.”
“Arguably the most important part of an RPG game, this game has a fresh take in being in many ways more like a detective story, where you try to uncover the mystery of an event which lured the most powerful martial artists to fight for a mysterious manual, which ended with none of those who went coming back.”
“A very bad game; the story is boring and even feels unfinished at the end.”
“Actually, the story is not that complex, but the way it was written made it complicated for no good reason.”
“In terms of story and side quests, I found it overly complicated and convoluted.”

Gameplay reviews highlight a mix of disappointment and familiarity, with some players finding it bland and others noting it as merely "okay." The introduction of investigation elements in wuxia games has not resonated well with all fans, while combat mechanics are seen as derivative of previous titles, albeit with some new features like terrain interactions and unique accessory skills. Overall, there are concerns about outdated design choices affecting the overall experience.
“If you have played Path of Wuxia or Tale of Wuxia, the combat is essentially the same with some added mechanics such as terrain interaction and a stance bar that you can break by attacking from specific directions a certain number of times to incapacitate the enemy.”
“In addition to skills, there are 'mechanisms,' which are unique accessory slot items that provide more unique and situational skills, ranging from an AoE bomb to a mechanical chicken that can act as a shield to restore your stance.”
“I really like wuxia games; however, there is a recent trend of including all these 'investigations' gameplay into wuxia games, the major one being '天命奇御二.'”
“Bland gameplay.”

The music in the game is considered adequate but lacks the quality and impact of standout tracks from other titles, making it less memorable both in-game and as standalone listening.
“The music is adequate, but I don't think the tracks are nearly as good as some power tracks, which add so much to a scene or are just good enough for me to listen to on their own.”
