...it's spoiled by the fact there are too many activities required on a daily basis to build up your character. Skip any of them and you'll be at a disadvantage, and likely not be strong enough to complete questing, nevermind dungeons and raids.
Its also stingy and doesn't give enough rewards, so essentially it borders on Pay-to-Play!
Im hoping 6 months or a year down the line the devs will have fixed this because it has a GREAT storyline and the graphics and art direction really is very pretty. There's a lot of heart and soul put into the game, its sad the men in suits f*cked it up with their ridiculous monetization.
A really nice game with great gameplay, great storyline and beautiful art direction but...

It's just awfull how the devs and the company owning the IP think that the mobile mmo can't be good without auto-play. First Ni no kuni now Ys.
Just play the original titles and have much more fun playing them than this garbage. Who tf likes to watch the game doing everything for them???
In ni no kuni at least the graphics are nice, but here?! The game looks like these mobile MMOs no one wants to play bc they are insanely BAD, and look even worse.
Another auto-play "game"

Falcom’s Ys franchise has seen red-haired protagonist Adol Christin going on epic adventures for thirty-five years now. Though it’s never received the level of respect it deserves, it has continued to hold a place of high regard from a certain subset of hardcore fans—a group I proudly count myself among.
The secret to Ys’s longevity and success has always been a certain sharpness to its formula. From 1987’s
