Pros: Loved the game artwork and it felt straight out of dragon blaze world.
📖 Storyline: The story is soo fluid, quite immersive  and merged with the game play that it somewhat feels like an interactive novel when there's no combat.
🕹️ Controls: It's somewhat okay. I had no issues with it so far. It's not anything new, but we have multiple options, along with two different control sets.

   However, the fun ends over there. The game's starting stages had an option to do auto battle and even on stage 1-2/1-3, if you use auto, chances are that your char would die. Manual works quite well, but if you're not vigilant, you'd end up dying. If that's how things are at the beginning, you might have a very very hard time mid-end game, where games are usually focused on grinding and auto modes.
The gacha felt very odd for this game. It has the standard gacha type which became quite prevalent after genshin release. However, given how this game's play style is, such a gacha system would just give diminishing returns for minor power increase as you progress. I can guess that eventually, things would end up like dragon blaze, with stuff like first impact, second etc. or something equivalent to that.
Given how there's quite a lot of similarities to dragon blaze game style and genshin gacha model, for someone who has played both of them, since release, for an extensive amount of time, this feels like an experiment gone wrong.
I have to emphasize that I love the game, but I'm very reluctant about spending anything in-game and I'm unsure that I might be playing this game for long.

Initial impressions of this game: it's pretty decent. The gameplay is fast paced and addicting. It's similar to PGR, but with some different mechanics. 👍 Pros: The sound design and music is good, makes the gameplay more engaging. Voice acting (in English at least) is just OK. I appreciate the effort but nothing special. I like how the level up mechanics are similar to the source material. 👎 Cons: The story does not take its time. They really want to get you into the action and teach you all the mechanics.  Some people may like that, but for me, it breaks the immersion. A lot of exposition to explain story beats rather than taking the time to show you. The pacing is too fast.

📖 Storyline: I don't say much about this game. I didn't understand its plot at all, as I was very involved in the gameplay at the time of the release of this game. Yes, my experience of the game will only be described at the time of the release of this game, that is, I do not know what it is like now. So it's going to be fun to see what the developers have improved and how they're currently supporting the game. I'll definitely change my review when I ever want to come back.

👍 Pros: Decent open world rpg, main story and side quest quite interesting, characters lore are well written i like how it connects to the genshin universe. Intense combat and challenging boss fights, dungeons, puzzles and mini game events. Also good VA and cinematics. 👎 Cons: Greedy gacha system with little winning rate, toxic fanbase and community, devs aren't as generous as to given anniv rewards. Getting boring for a while things can get quite repetitive doing dailies grinding dungeons every single day.
