Cons
Con It's hard to progress without paying
Con Badly optimized
The graphics are not well optimized and you will experience lower frame rates than you normally would.
Con Complicated interface
For example finding out how to and then sending a whisper to someone is so complicated that you will probably just ignore functions like that.
Con Linear and repetitive missions
The missions can get boring over time. The more MMORPGs you have played, the sooner they will probably tire you.
Con Combat doesn't require much skill
Skill upgrade options are quite limited and you will find yourself throwing the same combos in-fight over and over again.
Con Not cross-platform
Windows and PS4 players are separated.
Con Have to fiddle with controls
Being that the game uses an emulated keyboard on screen it works best on tablet, though is not really the preferred method (but is the only one) since it takes up screen space.
