I love this game. It's combat is simple on the surface but has amazing depth and a very high skill ceiling. Like all gacha games, however, you can spend to ignore the need for skill. The story is beyond captivating and the world building is sublime. However, it falls into gacha tropes where once a character's patch is up, we don't see them again for a literal year later. Kuro listens to its players except when it comes to interwoven stories with characters who matter beyond their debut patch, and the echoes, which suck. Seriously, there is 6 RNGs in a row you have to win, sometimes 7 if the echo has two sonata effects, then you have to win again in a range for 5 of those RNG rolls. It's demoralizing. Kuro has also had some problems understanding its playerbase, like with their recent mishandling of the 1-year anniversary. But, except for those three problems, I can't reccomend this game enough.

Early Access Review
This is inherently a pathetic ripoff of Last Epoch, with a much worse skill system. Basically everything about this game is a worse version of LE. I played during the free weekend, and I have to say I found it fun, the story was interesting, but then it was highly frustrating. Maps were too big, damage was too low. I switched up my build which was WAY to expensive for a beginning player, and beat the boss I was struggling with much easier. Balance is obviously off. Google meta builds and you'll see that the devs absolutely cannot balance the game for crap. I like the dodging mechanic, but the actual gameplay was a drag. Overall, I dont think I will play this game when its free, much less pay for early access. I should not have to use lightning attacks as a witch just to do acceptable damage, and the chaos fire witch needs a lot of improvement to be viable over contagion. I shudder to think what endgame is like.

This will be a fantastic game, when they finish it. Only bought it to play with my playstation friends. Also, can't listen to the game because of the audio bug. Bought through a 3rd party, or else I'd refund it.
