alright, before i get too far into this review, i want to make it clear that i absolutely love trove. it is easily one of the most fun games i have ever played, and i've made a lot of friends through it. absolutely in love with the level, costume, enemy and character designs.

however...

from the time i started playing trove to now, i've realized (with much disappointment) that it's basically a pay-to-play game at this point. not everyone can afford credits, cubits and what not. i totally understand the whole patreon thing, wanting to give certain fans access to some rare things here and there, but it feels like that is the absolute only way to make any real advancements or anything other than grinding and farming 24/7. everything, from credits and cubits to materials and costumes, should be more accessible than what they are now. im not saying to just hand things out, but jeez, don't make it to the point where we can't get any even slightly cool stuff without having to pay for it.

i would have recommended trove a while back, but i won't recommend it now unless paying actual money for upgrades and outfits is your cup of tea.
