Long version:

I've played a lot of mmos and this one is very unique from any other mmo that I've played. The character customization in this game is incredible I've never had so many options when creating a character in any other game! The graphics in the game are also amazing one of the best looking mmo by far. Now the important things, is it true that this game is pay to win? Yes and No. Yes you can buy some items in the cashshop that gives you slight boosts but you're able to earn all of this stuff in the game just a little bit slower. For example Summit1G spent money buying outfits for $34 and selling them for 25m on market, I played the game for only a month and I can make 30-50m a day easily so that being said no this game isn't really pay to win. Pets are very important in this game and make it easier because they pick things up and save you a lot of time and you can buy them with ingame currency from sniping them on the market or by doing events they give out free pets all the time the events are simple like login for 20 days. Almost every month the game likes to do events and give out a lot of useful free things to all players which makes the game a bit easier and a lot more enjoyable.

Shorter version - pros/cons

Pros:
The game is NOT pay to win.
Beautiful graphics.
Incredible character customization.
Amazing pvp.
All classes are very fun and pretty balanced.
No gold sellers!
No monthly payments.

Cons:
Not very new player friendly, can be confusing at first.
The community is pretty toxic but there's still some nice people out there.
You get a lot of advantages for afking/leaving pc running all night.
Very addictive.

Rating:
Graphics - 10/10
Grinding - 8/10 (pretty grindy but very rewarding)
Leveling speed - 7/10 (you level very quick from 1-55 after that it gets pretty hard)
Overall rating - 9/10 highly recommend the game!

Not much else I can add, overall the game is very fun and addictive. If you're new to mmo's overall maybe this one shouldn't be your first unless you have friends to help you. I personally enjoy it and do recommend it.

First off I just want to say I never leave reviews for games. BUT I saw some of the reviews for this game and a lot of people are making a bad review for the dumbest reasons and I felt like I need to make a review.

People mainly leave bad reviews for this game because they didn't like the devs past games which have nothing to do with this game... Yes the devs did make mistakes with their older games BUT they improved and they constantly update this game. This game does not and never will have pay to win.

I personally bought the ultimate edition and it wasn't even for the extra stuff it was mainly to support this game. Ultimate edition does not give you anything that would be considered pay to win. You get extra slots in the vault and start out as a higher level.

People say this game is unfair which is not true. Yes there's some weapons that are higher level but everyone has a chance to get them and use them. Yes the game was a little unfair to new players because they were not high enough level to use some of these weapons BUT this has been fixed. They added servers for low level people so this way it's fair now.

I personally think that this game is fair the way it is and even if the devs gave up and left on the game (hope they don't :P) I wouldn't be mad. From the money I spent I already got my money worth of fun out of it. I highly recommend this game to everyone and I hope those other bad reviews won't impact your decision too much. As I said most of those bad reviews are just haters and people that might of played the game before the new player friendly servers were added. I hope this review helped! :)

This is my first serious review. This game looks great and has a lot of potential but has a lot of problems with their servers. I personally only have 1.7 hours in the game in solo mode and that was fun. I personally wanted this game for the multiplayer aspect so I tried joining multiple servers and it keeps connecting then taking me back to the main menu. This is a known issue there's posts from 2015 that are not solved to this date still. I reinstalled many times and nothing helped. Anyways this game would of been great if the multiplayer worked but it doesn't. Another thing that's weird about the game is that I think there's a FPS cap my pc gets up to 40ish FPS and my friends get the same. It's not my pc.

EDIT: Let me be more clear, the multiplayer DOES work BUT a lot of people have a problem like me and can't play multiplayer. If you buy this game and the multiplayer DOES work then you might have a different opinion. For me and many other people it does NOT work so if you do still decide to buy the game I hope you won't have problems. Good luck!
