Nothing about the game is impressive. Maybe the combat system because of how fluid it is, but that’s it.

Everything else is basically a gacha clone with incredibly cringey dialogue. What makes it truly terrible though is the community. A bunch of deranged individuals obsessing over taking upskirts of the characters (even the young ones) and then ACTUALLY defending their actions. Just go read through the subreddit for the game. It’s atrocious. Turned me completely away from playing the game after the first week.

Plenty of better titles to invest your time in.

Lol. It’s the same as ZZZ (zenless zone zero) among others when it comes to abilities.. Nothing totally new and innovative at all.
