tl;dr used to recommend this game, but don't waste ur money on this crap bruv.
a general list of immediate opinions about this game (most bad, some neutral, some just there, and some good):

1. they only care about CN
2. they don't change the game for the better
3. same old crap for an increasing length
4. overcharge for everything cosmetic-wise
5. go to #1
6. global expansion (in terms of more servers for the game) has been discussed so much by the player-base all the people who had hope of touching the game remotely normally (below 80 ping) have all been eradicated by the plague.
7. heng sword is still busted, but gaslighters will tell you to "just parry" or "dodge bro" because they're in gold fighting against the bottom 50%
8. if you speak english, spanish, or any language that isn't CN do note your opinion is going into the incinerator (go to #1)
9. complaining about the game asking you to disable anti-cheat is the worst reason to not recommend this game humanly possible, there are so many other (better) reasons to raw dawg it.
10. characters are sort of balanced??? I guess? why tarka can't break through gold focus in ult punch makes no sense to me, and i'm unsure why tessa was even greenlit
11. weapons have gone through so many cycles of meta it's not even funny, probably even more so than the characters but imma keep it a buck with you. RIP KATANA. YOU WILL BE MISSED.
12. Aurora Burst, Merciless, Dragon's, etc (with gold focus) need to be purple at most...? idk why they're not.
13. there're too many things in the game atp. you have new OP souljades being added, new character overtuned for a few too many patches for that cosmetic $$$$, and no actual care towards the health of the game.
14. only addicts still play this
15. see #1
16. it's promoted as an "eSport" but the thing is... why is a game labeled as an eSport having like 2-4 people out of dozens others be from regions outside Asia in their WORLD CUP tournament? seems more like Asia Cup + a couple extras
17. this game is so braindead easy and then thrusts you (as a new player) into the literal dark abyss or dante's inferno.. there is no "easing" into it outside of beating braindead bots and then fighting literally "pro-based" bots that play better than 95% of the playerbase
18. the battle passes have good value and give you all the gold you spent on them back so you can buy the new one suggesting you completed the previous
19. you need a literal RTX 50k + i2000 48600 to be able to run this game at any fps above 60
20. no decent optimization (fps increases) in decades (probably ever)
21. the community copes too hard, and can't admit the game is trash and move on to something with more polish
22. why in the donkey's blue balls are weapon infinites even remotely in the game outside of tarka's/takeda's....?
23. they make too much money for them not to contribute to global server expansion.. oh and see #1 for reference
24. they have a literal "node" (fake server, but working server) for people from smaller regions that only activates if enough players from that region are queue'ing at the time... but don't have leaderboards or any other regular server accommodations for those "nodes" (regions. EX: South America, OCE, etc). DESPITE THE FACT THE NODES COST AS MUCH AS THE SERVERS??? (confirmed by moderators)
25. people like to put the blame on Trashease, and not 24 Garbage bu the fact of the matter is they both could make changes to better the experience and absolutely choose to worsen it.
26. the pros are all nice people, and most will teach you how to play the game without a paywall.
27. some pros will paywall information like monkeys needing bananas because they don't get paid enough playing Naraka professionally
28. people in general will charge you for basic information, of which the public in its entirety can't figure out on their own due to the game being so obscure gameplay-wise (not detailing exactly what is this and what is that)
29. see #1
30. a lot more bad, not much more good, but my dinner just finished cooking so i'm gonna' go eat

don't play this game unless you have friends to play with or are immune to constant untrue (gameplay-wise just meaning literally unfair/game doing an oopsie) crap happening to you.

go play OW2 and stop being mad at them for taking away your robots to shoot. that game has infinitely more polish than this one, has genuine eSports stability of which are professionally orchestrated (even for minor events) unlike this crap.

oh, and see #1 goofy you don't speak Mandarin we all know you don't. DO NOT TOUCH WITH A 50 MILE POLE.
from: very good unrivaled asura (name of the highest rank title) player, someone you can trust in regards to this game.

allowing comments for all the (day 1) naraka enjoyers to disprove or "you're bad bro" me

game became free was not free before but anyway. makes sense terrible community because they're hiding themselves from the reality of hard work dedication and reward from that, genuine hard work using hard physical and mental stress genuine mental stress, but they're sticking in this game with such huge issues against genuine combat which it is trying to replicate then using biased results to inflate their own pits of madness "i'm good i'm better". ;-; So disappointing, slums have integrated into the online networks. And i'm of course saying an equivalent, slums can be fixed in real life. Citizens in a "free country" that stuck themselves in a room being degenerate NEETS..... isn't fixable to the truest extents.
