The leveling is an absolute slog. The experience needed for leveling increases exponentially, but the xp income stays the same. If you like literal days of meanially cutting wood with no reward to level, you'll love this game.

The combat system is incredibly ambitious, but falls flat. AI can arbitrarily parry you whenever they feel like it and the combat is lagging, rubberbanding and causing you to get hit where you were over a second ago, even at official servers with a population of 10.

The developers response to much valid critisism has simply been to "host your own game and change the rates if you think this is hard".
