Gimmicks is all it is

The game is exactly like any other target based mmo, execpt instead of clicking u move your reitcle

Graphics: beautiful. The game seems to be well optimized and the game and environments are full of detail.

Controls- The aiming mechanic is stupid. I played a mage and the aiming felt odd. All other buttons are inaccessible, such as inventory options etc, when you are using the aiming reticle. Every single action and spell locks the character into place, which then leads to game-play problems.

Gameplay- Boring. As a mage at least. The quests are the usual boring go kill 10x of this version of the same monster you fought a few minutes ago. All enemies telegraph their moves, making it so that you can pretty much dodge anything, unless your stupidly locked into an attack's animation.

Story- Absolutely unimportant. Starts out your at lvl 20 on an island and when u finish that and supposedly die you start over at lvl 1 and want to go to the island were u died?

Overall- I would play it if it was free, but it's not. And its not worth 15$ a month
