I’ve been enjoying the game to an extent, but eventually it just hit me that the rough and infuriating gameplay is less for the sake of reward through punishment, and more to pressure the player into spending crash. After all, If bad RNG caused you to lose everything you’ve worked towards, why not spend a few bucks to make it easier? It simply isn’t designed for people that want to spend a few dollars and not worry about spending more. It’s a micro-transaction trap that I already paid money for. Fun concept but very disappointed
For the most part, this game is pretty fun and interesting, but basically every single enemy in the end game has so much defense that you will never do more that 1hp worth of damage to them without a combo even with weapons that do MASSIVE damage. That and the fact that you have to replay every single zone to attempt the final boss more than once just makes the entire end game way too padded. Worth a try, but not worth getting more than one ending. Unless you have pure golden luck, you will either spend way too much time grinding or way too much money saving time. Oh, and if you die? Start over. You can insure your items so you don’t loose good gear, but all of your stats reset and every zone re-locks and has to be paid for again.
It’s a great and simple game, I’m having a fun time building the character. My only nag is the rng. You have to deal with bad rng and decide what to do next. There’s nothing you can really do about the enemy hitting you multiple times, think of this game like a casino.
