The take away: This game plays on the psychology of gamers doing specific things to waste your time and money.

Caveat: Your time is your own, my point here is that this game introduces certain mechanics that are obviously based on creating and then capitalizing on addiction. This isn't the first and wont be the last game that does this, but this game does a horrible job of at least covering up what it is doing.

The Game:

Graphics - The art is great for the characters, you wont notice it in game play but when you do stop and look at your character it's fine considering the art style.

Art Style - If you like Anime you will probably enjoy this.

Effects - Very good and are being updated over time so it's hard to really judge this.

Music - Nice at the begining, becomes repetitive but you can always run your own stuff.

Sound Effects - Nothing the write home about.

Story - The game comes across as late alpha or early beta, it has no exploration and certainly no story, there are a few episodes of story like content but that's all unless you count the affinity system. (More on that later)

Combat - This is what the game is based around and this is what it does fairly well, other games have done it before and this game refines on that; to be honest I think Dragon Nest did it better.

Loot:

RNG - Each map is an arena where you fight an enemy or two the more you beat them the higher the difficulty next time. The higher the difficulty the higher the % chance of getting the 1 item they drop... I believe you can get as high has 4%.

Affinity - This is part of RNG also you have a less than 50% chance of meeting an npc after wining an arena fight. You then have a sub sub RNG where you select dialog with the npc and it might count towards the unlockable dialog, if it does you get affinity with that NPC and at certain points they give you loot. For reference this can take you a week or two to get anything decent.

Gacha Boxes - Basically gambling, give them 3 dollars and you get a Storage box with costumes... don't be fooled these are equipment and the stats look similar but they give more augment slots normally unless you get garbage... it's a gamble.

Fun - When you realize you can pay to win in a game with pvp... it kind of throws things off a bit. Of course pay to win is hidden behind a Gacha wall. I haven't tried the PvP though and since I discovered the gacha stuff I dropped the game so I probably wont ever try the pvp.


Finally:
I'm begining to think Valve is moderating the review section, this is my 3rd time writing this, I went very indepth the 1st and 2nd time and for the powers that be this time I will be saving the review to copy paste it.
