“Not convinced by this game even at the low price tag : - no solo play, only PvP - mouse control is horribly sluggish - nearly zero config options - general lack of polish”

“While the game is good and has an interesting concept, there are too many glitches & softlocks to make it enjoyable. Hopefully the devs fix them but as of now, I wouldn't really recommend it, especially if you're looking to 100% the game…”
