World definitely feels empty; the lore surrounding the game has a good premise, and the sub-regions story quests play out in a decent-enough to make you have impact on the outcome.

I haven't looked too far into the cash shop so far, but it also has not been pushed straight into my face to see what I COULD buy, which I unfortunately have to appreciate in the current market.

My biggest gripe is that you can tell combat animations and weapon swing effects were never really a thought. I'm sure I'll have further gripes after actually progressing and looking into the shity SaaS offerings
