Alright. I've played 6 hours so far.
It's a barebones RPG. The only reason I'm playing it is due to a mix of my laptop being crappy and a dearth of games where you can make your own character *and* party, but...
Holy hell the character customization is small. A few hair colors, a few hair styles, a few add ons, a few preset facial settings. TOEE or even the Neverwinter MMO this isn't. The writing is jarring - you're a spoiled prince in a small castle, whose options are often snobbish, selfish, and spoiled. Okay...? So apparently we're a twenty five year old manchild and have been literally tossed out of bed by our queen to this Island - yes, Island, not some Continent, this thing is barely bigger than Puerto Rico or so - to put the three uppity cultures there to heel and reestablish our colony there.
Overall I'm fine with that, but the writing is so barebones and seems to be written around this character being a idiotic loafer whining about going home or rubbing his royalty into everyone he meets. I'm surprised the options to *not* be like that exist; but I gladly took them and now I'm mostly some 'good' murderhobo fighting for the downtrodden.
Maybe my exposure is very small in scope, but the setting is alluring. Then comes the combat - you run around, kill a few things, get nothing for it. Everything is tied to chests. And then it doesn't really matter anyway because there's no crafting system (beyond gluing some stones into your armor or arms at a smith), there's no enchantment system (besides what I just mentioned), no personal smithing system, no personal resource gathering system other than combing through chests or finding rocks on the ground. Compare this to, oh, Underrail and this feels really barebones. In nearly every aspect.
Like someone else said, if you imagine that this is some newbie's first RPG, and you just want a RPG-lite game (RPG inspired?) then it's passable while waiting for other games.
