261 hours and counting.
great game refreshing, they made the mind wrecking of poe build tree more player friendly and you can synergize your skill and proc skill while making builds for them aka frostclaw build synergized with elemental nova build. 15 classes to chose from. but thats IT. nothing else.

now the part that everyone hates the cons and trust me the list is long



- the story is anything but captivating. your goal is to kill a snake god , if youre smart enough you can kill him at level 8.

- the game has a challenge sufficient enough to allow a 9 years old child to go through without any difficulty ( devs words not mine)

- the combat system is more messed up than a blue haired girl victim identity. one day you can go through the worst boss fights without dieing and the next day the same fights will one shot you. The mitigation system is completly wasted acts randomly thanks to the devs poor coding and lack of attention to what they were doing. 30k ward, the poe version of hp shield, and great miotigation will still make you get one shot by trash monsters. The bosses in the game have adaptive combat ai that decided when it can magicly mitigate your bis bis and gears dps to look like a level 1 was hitting the boss.

- the grouping system is inexistent even if this is an online game that allows you to group. You cannot join dungeons that are already made to help other players. you cannot return to a dungeons while grouped if: you die, your bags are full or if you disconnect due to the crappy server that hosts the game you CANNOT go back to the dungeon without risking a bug, graphic bug ( porting into the graphic and being stuck) or simply disconnecting.

- the server stability is terrible on avergage with a 450mbps 6ms isp connection 23 ms ingame connection i can dc roughly 5 to 12 times a day just by being in the town.

- echos( end content fi you can call it that) or less easy version of the last part is redundant and lack creativity considering the amount of maps and geological terrain they have made. nothing new there and its all not group friendly.

- dungeons same thing 5 dungeons that are not group friendly because of what i wrote above. sharing loot as a group if you dont die or get your bags full is just as broken. you cannot trade with other players unless you get a resonnance( some type of item that virtually never drops. 3 hours of game play with a ranom player from the world chat and i wasnt even able to give him an item he needed)

- The social aspect of the game is just as terrible. The chat is governed by an AI that censors everything but the gold sellers and thats on either online or offline mode that the ai works . You cant write without the ai censoring words it doesnt understand or considers harmfull because the game is deisgned to be a social safe space ( the devs word not mine ) because apparently having an opinion is harmfull to those who cant stand people not thinking like them... You can end up having to rewrite your sentence 4 to 5 times because a word you used was considered harmful. Shoudl you be able to voice your opinion without being censored the immediate reaction to said opinion will be the rise of an army of troll haters die hard and hype train maniacs that cant stand being told something isnt working right. the main excuses will usually be its your fault for any issues. Connection graphic bug game crashing crafting breaking down or losing items to portal resetting the whole map exept the 3x3 square you have around your portal. its your fault get t used to it even fi you didnt code the game.

- crafting is a total waste. you only need to focus on getting the best in slot uniques and if youc an clear the smithing dungeons and maybe get that specific craft to work to get more mitigation thats all the fun youre going to get. the devs didnt think about players wanting to craft their own items and the shard and scroll system is a non sense.
honestly if they would allow players to craft their own weapons and armor to their likings, from ground up( get the mats, make your items and add specific component to get the stats and crafting cap that you want it would be insanely fun

- the player support on discord and forum is just as bad. the devs coder and gms will censor you//ban you from discord the moment they see that they cannot shut you up with their premade answers and distractions. the steam forum is just as bad, you cnnot voice your opinion or stand up for the peopel being harassed because they pointed something wrong. you immediatly get reported and the overzealous moderator lead by a bunch of trollflagger will immediatly ban you 1 to 3 days or permanantly by using flags like aggressive, combative arguementative or literrally discriminatory to minorities even if you just pointed out the connection issues

the items in the game are downright a copy paste from d2 d3 d4 and poe with a bit of their own items and tweaking to remain in the grey areas.

if you have to buy it. its on you but i wouldnt reccomend it. the game is really shady when i stop and think about it. sadly i couldnt ask for a refund since i spent my 2 hours trying to get out of the tutorial with all the crashes and lag spikes.
