I got hooked on this game relatively quickly from how easy it is to navigate through the controls and the interface. I also love the freedom to still play and enjoy the game without following factions (my indecisiveness got the better on me and I can't still settle on one, lmao). Speaking on which, the only thing I find annoying was the pop up menu for the factions that appear every level up, it would be nice if it would end as another tab on the character menu. Overall, very fun game!

Really hate their choices of classes removed and REALLY hate their choices of classes added. Edit:To answer devs question. I hate this blademaster to shadowmancer, wasn't even close to an adequate replacement. A class with physical gear, but stats and skills are magic based. Let alone the learned skills are T5 while playing T6. Shadowmancer needs to be removed forever. The runner up choice couldn't possibly be as bad or worse. Hard to hold out til T7. Even then my belief it'll get better is shot

Hey Ru - which removed class are you referring to? Any class removed over the years should have had an equivalent class added. Edit: Blademaster was replaced with Templar, which has the same skills and stats as Blademaster. The Grand Mystic was replaced with Shadowmancer.

It's an everlasting grinding JRPG, which is not a bad thing! It's a game that's easy to pick up, easy to put down, yet offers a lot of depths in its character optimisation! My only gripe is the slow start of the game; Thieves don't really get worthwhile skills for a long time, and upgrading material (looking at Iron) can be impossible to get your hands on. Overall good game, though!
