ALL "FUNNY"/ONE SENTENCE POSITIVE REVIEWS SHOULD BE DISREGARDED
This game is not worth your time. It's designed to pull money out of you. Do NOT play it.

Still bad. Even worse now, because of the artist controversy. Now, I fear that even playing this game will make you look like a woman-bashing incel or something.

EVERYTHING about this "game" is designed to make money. It's not a game. You spend money to get new characters. You spend money to get new moves. You spend money to get new power ups. You spend money to level up your characters. You spend money, to get energy, to PLAY THE GAME. And if you don't want to? Then you're going to be wasting hours on end just to catch up. Look at my hours. I've played for 50 hours. Around 40 of them were wasted grinding.

DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME. DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME. DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME.

The original review:
Gacha game. Simple as. ProjectMoon has gone FULL sell-out.
Support this game and its developers if you care to hasten the death of the industry.

The (old) new review:
I'm so sorry, but I kept playing the game.
It still sucks. It's REALLY bad.
The entire gameplay loop is dedicated to pressuring you into either wasting your time doing the same missions over and over again for XP, or into wasting your money to expedite the grind and getting XP in exchange for real life money.
It's such a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ shame. There's so much effort being poured into the art, the music, the animations, and the sound design, but it's all being expended to a monument of gaming sin. The nature of the game's story is practically catered to people who care immensely about the Project Moon world and want to explore it desperately.
But, in being a love-letter to its fans, is where the game's truly evil nature shines the brightest: everything in the game that isn't meant to squeeze cash out of you, is a lure. It's meant to lure you in, deeper and deeper, until you start making up reasons why spending $4.99 for whatever fake currency pack is justifiable. $5 becomes $10, becomes $20... you know how it goes.
Do NOT play this game. Do NOT play this game. Do NOT play this game.

tl;dr original review was a successful prediction of how the game works
