For a free game its very well made, definitely not pay to win. im not to sure about the reset every 6 week but il soon find out. i know you do keep most things but your level drop back to zero. i do recommend it and it goes to xbox and playstation early next year 2026 which is going to increase the volume a lot...

So far after only a few weeks I feel like I have found a game that continues to challenge me--to engage me and to make me really look forward to game time. I enjoy the character creation and the ability to really individualize your character---and most especially the really friendly and helpful Once Human community
