What players say
67% of 39,728 reviews are positive · 58% of 79 in the last 30 days
Players praise the class and build variety and satisfying mass enemy clearing. The main complaint is monetization: players object to paid classes, storage, and cosmetics in a game that is not free to play. Others criticize major redesigns, removed content or progress, and support responses to bans or lost items.
