If you like a grindy game, this is your game. Your main goal is to literally become as strong as possible and doing that requires so many things to do that its like "fun". also the designs are kinda cool. If you DONT speak chinese you're going to suffer a bit (Thankfully people already have you covered in the discussions tab for most of the stuff that you might be looking for). The controls are kinda confusing at first but then you get used to them, the only complaint is that when you use cursor mode (press alt) your character will use actions regardless, even when clicking on something to get information. To RELOCK the cursor you dont just press "Alt", that gets rid of the cursor but you cannot move the camera, the only way is to press any mouse button, preferably the middle button works better because the middle button is for "info" and doesnt have you accidentally attack anything. Race MATTERS a lot. Certain creatures are just outrght broken either on CPU or player, however the CPU might not take full advantage of a creature but you sure can, some creatures are outright monsters when controlled by the player, dont sleep on them. Overall for specific people that enjoy grindy games this has it pretty grindy, you need to build up your character, build money to fund your character even more, SOME CPUs are just outright broken and you have to cheese them. ALSO YOU CANT CHANGE COLOOOOOOOOOORS which lowkey kinda sucks
