Hunters Origin

I have been loving this game and paid for the basic VIP and the season 8 pass. The main attraction of the game is collecting gear to increase your stats as you level up. It’s not a side item, it is the point of the game. Then they screwed up bad. The game updated overnight and wiped out all the gear I was carrying in my backpacks of all six hunters. There were high level epic and rare items that I was holding to level up into. Now it’s all gone, and I have no trust that it something happen again to continue playing. This literally ruined the game for me. I gave it 2 stars because I enjoyed it until then. if the game finds a way to reinstate the lost gear, I will come back. Otherwise I will not spend another minute or dollar on it or any other Boombit game. If the devs can fix it and earn back my faith, I will resume and give a 5 star rating. I was hoping to try your other games too, but this error wiped out the point of the game and my confidence in the stability of your games.

Like many other comments have said the game is fun. It's been challenging, yes, but only in a "you need to spend time to actually farm proper gear to succeed" kind of way. Mechanically many boss fights boil down to either running from enemies, hitting from a distance, and repeating, or killing them before they reach you. That suits me perfectly. There are also plenty of systems like offline exo gains, offline gold gains, and increases to mount speeds which are unlocked by developing npcs in town with resources gathered from the overworld, so every bit of grind feels useful. I do wish that all 3 npcs didn't use the same resources to upgrade. The discord has very active engagement between developers and players. I'm 2 weeks in and loving it, if any glaringly bad issues pop up I'll revisit this.

I bought the no ads battle pass, which is 10 bucks a month and even with the bonus is it provides most of the quests are incredibly grinding and punishing. Not being able to beat a level six quest easily at level 11 is kind of frustrating. The game spams you with IAP ads even if you buy the no ads package every time you teleport or die you have to sit through three ads. The graphics are cute, but the communication between players is very limited. The basic gameplay loop is fun but far too punishing its current form unless you’re just looking for something to endlessly grind at a very slowly progress, even after spending some money. I think I will just be getting a refund in quitting. Updated: as I’ve progressed to level 13 it’s almost impossible to find partners for dungeons and they always back out. I think the game is on its last legs please avoid. Unless they change something around soon it’s gonna EOS if it hasn’t already. Update: after a week there are phishing spammers, no teach support and hackers in dungeons. Devs have given up it seems
