    Hope everyone has fun. I believe the starting days of any mmorpg launch are usually the most fun.

    They are having server issues, and folks on t he west coast are complaining about the ping; because no west coast servers.

    I refunded the game after 1 hour. This is the definition of having too much theme park. The game tells you how to play, there is no exploration or anything other than DO THIS QUEST, THEN DO THAT QUEST.



    Even killing monsters grant 0 xp and 0 loot. Everything is just based around linear questing and at the end it will be dailies/weeklies.



    No thanks



    It is a game made by and marketed for communist China, where people are told what to do and when to do it lol.

    It's funny because I thought this was supposed to be a PvE game, and iit was billed such; but it would seem once you hit max level it's open season haha. I guess people are complaining about that too now. Apparently the majority that picked this game up, didn't do so for pvp. Who would've thought? The people doing the Pking have to spend 8 hours in a virtual prison (realtime) People will just use PK bots to get around that system. xD So stupid.

    Its just beeline from lvl 1 to max , if you walk to any side its just empty stage. Ridicilous. Even singleplayer RPGs have more variety

    I find it telling (of course UN intentionally) of this genre at this point that the newest game out, it's abbreviation is "SOLO"... Just sayin...

    Go figure, the game is garbage. I played it during the Steam demo event they ran on there. It was embarrassingly awful. Like, truly. Just bad with no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

    Good luck to the poor souls who think this is a fun game. I really do think you're a part of the reason we keep getting trash like this in the west. Low effort, flashy combat/grind oriented games. People buy this crap and then complain that it's boring after three weeks.

    Yeah, duh. You're supporting this shit. So you're going to keep getting this shit.

    Demand a little more from the genre, and maybe we'll get it.

    Same, 46 minutes played and refund requested, which is a bummer because it looked like they did monetization right.

    I havent bought the game but if you flip the coin someone can say the games we have been asking for have been in development for almost 7 years and no release in sight. Dont put it on the gamers that the market is dry.

    Lol Someone stated that the Fiery Wings (Flying Mount) is limited to 7 days. No where in the sales description does it state this. False advertising.

    0 p2w? count me in!

    we should support companies that stick to cosmetic only shop!

    That was my thought as well, but that's about the only good decision they made with this game.

    On rails, utterly linear...not worth a 35 quid punt...wait until GF inevitably spoils the show, and it becomes F2P!

    Yeah, you go guy (or gurl?). I only purchase "quality" western published games like FO76 and Cyberpunk 2077, that will show those commies what for.

    I look everyday for a new mmorpg or a new survival game and wouldn't give this game a second thought.I can spot junk immediately just like i did with Aion...Genshin all  these way overrated piles of crap.

    Crowd funding and f2p models have NEVER produced a game of any worth.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    Point of note, it's not crowdfunded nor is it free to play.

    So, is there any way to turn off the dotted .............. line that leads you to your quest objectives?

    I find it distracting.

    I am a bit, positively, surprised you got the game. Any first impressions or comparisons to other games you’d like to share? The game intrigues me in an Asta kind of way.

    'But there are many. You can play them entirely solo, and even offline. Also, you are wrong by default.'

    Ikcin in response to yours sincerely debating whether or not single-player offline MMOs exist...



    'This does not apply just to ED but SC or any other game. What they will get is Rebirth/X4, likely prettier but equally underwhelming and pointless. 

    It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.

    It is just huge resource waste....'
