After 600+ hours its safe to say skip this game.. The games core is decent with the retro mmo grind fest kind of vibe but might not be a good fit for everyone. Now what makes the game a waste of time an not in a good way. The dev's are some of the worst when it comes to communication on development. Oh the next update is near they say? I hope you enjoy waiting a for least a year. Join the discord just to watch new players get crapped on for asking question on future updates by the mods/devs. The game has so much potential but long as the current devs are behind it count it just as a abandon game with player base pretty much down to bots an the few that cant let go after spending so much $$$.
Theres no game here yet. no balancing of any kind. early levels get absolutely nothing and each level only happens by committing woodland creature genocide. I estimated it took me somewhere in the ballpark of 80 animals to level one time from level 7 to lvl 8. meanwhile crafting or buying equipment you still get nothing until lvl 10-11 except the quest rewards which are 1 per 2-3 levels. everything is a pointless grind and the game itself holds you back to such an extent that to level a skill requires many copies of stuff you dont need at all paired with the inventory stacks seem to be fully unaware of what it takes to make anything. example: stacks are 20. to refine any resource takes ~5. that means 4 refined per stack of collected. want to make something out of that? costs at least 5 refined. meaning 2 full stacks gets you 2 finished products which sell for like 10 gold. to level a skill takes at least 10 finished products. wanna do the math? your inventory cannot hold 1 level of materials.

You might as well grind school IRL than to play this game because of how absurd the grind for levels.
This game is such a painful grind with almost 0 quests and the only way to gear yourself up is to grind for hours doing everything crafting. This is actually a crafting game with a little bit of fighting. The crafting itself is paced way far from right. If I chop a tree a million times, I should get a little faster at it. the crafting exp formulas need to be totally thrown out. There should have been plenty of crafting quests if they wanted to make crafting exp so stupid to get. By the time you get any where near the end of the game, you will most likely give up because there is no good way to play this game. It's either grind for hours and hours to craft a couple of things or don't play after about level 10. I tried to see some way to make this game faster, but it's not there at all. I could play two games like this in the time it's taking me in this one game. There has been a single update to this game that has anything to do with content at all. Their second one is coming when ever, but won't come out until it works right. I thought to myself 'works right?'. All the crafting is the same in this game, all the mobs do the same things and yet there's something not finished? It's not like they're going to add anything that fixes all that.

It's certainly charming, but the grindwall kills it almost immediately.
Was fun while it lasted
have potential but might never made it out of development. They need years just to have a new set of item and a few QOL. 1/10 in hope, 8/10 for short enjoyment
This games super fun if you're into games that take a lot of work. I've wasted so many hours of my life on this game... Its hella fun though
one of the worst rpgs i ever played its so grindy, just to get 1 more lvl you need to farm in the same zone for 30 mins and the quests are so ass they dont feel rewarding you need to farm for 1 hour for a quest just for the reward to give you a weapon that you can use after getting 2 more levels also there are many stats that you dont even need to upgrade they are just there for no reason the only ones you need are magic and attack also i looked at how frequent the updates are they do almost nothing for their game
