I'll try not to make this too long compared to my other reviews, and I know doing reviews for MMORPGs is almost impossible, but here's my attempt anyway.
Lemme say that it's been a long time since I've first seen this game, around 2010. For the longest, I thought this was exciting to come back to, but in recent years, I think these devs have lost it. There's so many unfixed bugs and bad design choices, we'd be here all day if I were to explain them.
First off, the story is boring and has the worst way to unfold it that I've ever seen in a game. No joke. It's a pattern of go thru the stage for the story mission and you think that's it, but NOPE. To continue, the game's like "Play this same stage, the exact same way several times to progress".....LIKE HUH?! Why tf would anyone want that? I might be a sadomas, but even I have my limits. And they want you to do that over, and over, and over, and over, and- Ok you get the point. I'm a big advocate for Eng Dubs, but this was done a bit poorly to my standards. Some of voices dont match (especially Ara) and they still haven't fixed Add's voice inaudible lines. While ofc, the Korean voices keep all the quality. They sprinkle in CGI events, some of which you already did in the missions you repeated and bothered to give you character specific story bits after enough progress, which I'm not sure how you get but not worth remembering. They were craply and cheaply done with black screens and texts anyway. Way to make me care. The whole thing about the power of El and corruption surrounding it would make any fanfic writer blush (from laughter).

The characters tend not to be interesting, with exceptions being Ain and Labby but even then, not like we're talking about a mile of difference in story quality. Thier Class-Up selves are where the interesting stuff happens, and the game should've been centered around than this El stuff. I'd prolly pay- Screw it, I'd MORE THAN LIKELY pay to see entire story cinematic arcs revolving around taking down the more evil-aligned Classes of the characters, and you have to try your best against them as they get to their final forms. Ofc dont make it to where we have to wait a year to see the story thru.

In terms of gameplay, it's still better than what I usually see in platform-based games but alot of the times it's straight-forward and can easily turn into mash-fests. Later bosses and ESPECIALLY event bosses can burn in hell for how unfair they are, even with a ton of full restore potions and revives. Wish I had the footage for the bs I had to endure around 2022, and I was definitely an addicted, above average player (that mained an ungodly Ara).
PVP is a joke. Doesnt take much to either stun-lock someone to death or you just happen to have a one-shotting nuke of an Ultra, or worse, you run into a max-level player that can do all of that. It completely invalidates builds and titles you think are great all cuz you coast thru stages with them.
Overall, the game has been on a quality rollercoaster for the longest. Between having constant updates, throwing optimization out the window, and trying it's best to spin it's wheels with a spam of events it loves not letting players that have lives to come back to. I remember when the game was around 5-7GB in size, now it's reached 20GB?? I feel so done with this game. Save your time, unless you like wasting it and indulging in Pay-To-Win slogs like this.
