The mission system are pure chaos that you either teleport to them or there nothing indicate for new mission that offer for you to do, the sever are empty without player, the tank movement in this game are pure joke, the combat are you stand still and click button to watch two guy or monster hit each one hit by one, the whole game are terrible wrong that can't attracted the player expect force playing that made you feeling the bad taste from it's.

"Grand Fantasia : ORIGIN" is an old, dead Taiwanese MMORPG that was propped up Weekend at Bernies style and infested with a mobile app P2W cash shop. Don't get me wrong, there's a few older MMORPGs on Steam where you can get a lot of fun without spending any money, that are still being updated by the dedicated development teams behind them. Grand Fantasia is not one of those games. Avoid.

This has some fairly mediocre/dated looking graphics that will understandably be a turn off for a lot of gamers, and it's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite having no up-front cost.

This isn't really free as the game is infested with mobile app store like microtransactions. This is a consumer hostile model that we don't need to see on PC. It's deceptively priced to gouge gamers, and that's a reason in itself to avoid this.

Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it?

Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off.

If you're looking for a F2P MMO, you're better off looking elsewhere.
-The UI is badly made. it doesn't scale well with monitor resolutions and the text isn't fully displayed. yes, an MMORPG where you do a lot of reading has bad text formatting.
-The Sprite menus are busted. looking at your Sprite inside its home is a buggy mass made up of its model, the interior decoration and its stats.
-Speaking of which, leveling up your sprite is an absolute dealbreaker. once you reach past level 20, it becomes very grindy and costly to train your Sprite(s). which you need to, because of the Sprite Crafting providing weapons and armor.
-Sprite Crafting is a crapshoot. depending on your luck, it's either so easy you don't even have to worry or you have to retry multiple times. of course, the crafting menu has a label showing what the odds of chances are, but due to the bad text formatting, the full sentence isn't displayed.
-For a "Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game", there's very little that encourages players interacting with each other. even the game seems aware of this, because party quests have an option to be finished solo.
-At rare points, certain quests are impossible to finish due to the enemies needed to finish them not spawning.
Unless you played this game, when it was hosted by Aeria Games during the 2010's, this is not recommended.
