Whale warning

Great game but f2p don’t get your hopes up. Even those who spend in the hundreds could not be competitive in this game. It is a really great game but the gap between f2p and p2w has widened to the point that it seems pointless to move on. You grind and grind to get to 140, get the 140 gear, awaken it and then they come out with 160. It was 120 in January and 180 is already being played on the Korean servers. So, you can see the money pit that this game can become. Too expensive and everything is a gamble. One can easily spend $100 and walk away with next to nothing. It literally takes $1000+ to be competitive and this creates a toxic playing environment. But Netmarble seems to play on that by making people think if they just spend a little more that they can get revenge on the person that pk’d them while they were afk grinding. Seen it happen and it didn’t sit well with me. Great game and is a lot of fun until you start playing with the whales who can one-hit an entire guild of quality f2p players. Not sure how they plan to keep this game “still alive” for much longer. F2P is getting choked out with each update. They might as well charge a subscription and not even let f2p think they stand a chance.

Greetings! We're sorry to hear about the unpleasant experiences with the in-game purchase mechanics. Your insights have made us more aware of the areas we can improve. We hold your input in very high regard, as this information will help us improve the experience for you. Please be on the lookout as we make further developments!

Pay to win, unstable updates and constant crashes

Saeldir update: I crash nonstop since this update and every other update prior to this. I just crashed 10 times in the last hour. Playing on an iPad or iPhone, it doesn’t matter, crash.

The imbalance between pay to win and free to play is drastic, even if you try to purchase some to try to stay competitive, it doesn’t matter, the whales will one shot kill you. My main is an lvl149 Assassin in 140 Leg* Set gear too.

I do not and will not recommend this game. Typical of all Netmarble games, especially Marvel Future Fight, everything is pay to play to be anything better than dirt. I say it’s time for a boycott in A3.

Love this game.

This game is absolutely fantastic and hard to put down once you start playing. The only way I could possibly love this game more is if it had a male/female choice for each class. The storyline is interesting, side quests are fun and overall a great experience to play. The MMORPG part of this is just as fun and I’d highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys a good story and fun online quests.

So unoriginal

Ugh. Yet another pretty auto RPG with esoteric and uninteresting dialog and story. I hate this crap - apparently gamers these days are nothing but easily distracted morons who can't figure out anything for themselves and need their hands held every step of the way, because this is the type of RPG companies keep producing (besides Idle RPGs which are just as bad). Cliche character creation, automated everything (even after turning off "auto", movement to NPCs and quest tasks were still automated!), even boob jiggle (seriously? That got old when it first started appearing like 15-20 years ago?) that's not even realistic since the metal armor breastplates jiggle too lol.

Yeah it has pretty graphics, epic sounding music (the only reasons for 2 stars), and a sexy female voice for narration, but those get old very quickly.
Plus it seemed to be draining my battery pretty quickly.
Uninstalled 5 min into gameplay.

Racist players
