“This would be much better if it did not have pvp idea in design. Because of pvp this game has so much problems in gameplay and lack of content to do”
“As a solo player... - This game is grindy AF. I ended up ramping up the XP/drop rates and stack sizes on the dedicated server I setup - There are bosses you need to wipe out, but cannot do this on your own - As a result you get locked out…”
