Overall after spending significant amount of time I would not recommend this game to anyone again. It looks quite good at first but getting worse each time you dive deeper into game mechanics and specifics.
My humble evaluation for this game - 4\10.

Game has pretty good visuals and idea with melee weapons attracted me in the first place with all that tempo and drive. Game has PvP and PvE modes, that's great. PvP balance is quite better than PvE. It's not so hard to be among high-rankers in PvP but it's different in PvE. I mostly play PvE, so here is my thoughts.
Before December's update PvE was just grind simulator. In the latest update they changed this stupid things to more balanced level spread and also added hardcore rogue like dungeon called Yama Abyss. And then I realized how broken this game.

Wanna short list of broken stuff in that game, here it is:
1) There are solo and trio modes in PvE, but most bosses have broken attacks which pierce you through the counter block (one of the game's core mechanism though) in case two or more players do that together, unbelievable.
2) Yama's skill balance is terrible, patches afterward only made it worse, it's a fact. There are 1-2 skills that work and 1-2 strategies with jade. Rest variety of skills killed.
3) High end Yama's floors difficulty is nightmare. I've cleared 45/45 levels and stopped because I see that less than 0.1% of all players able to climb high end floors. Not only you have no right to mistake there, but without luck in every room and with every bosses you just run out of time, because you restricted with timer.
4) Let's add here terrible dodge frame window. Every new player that I've invited from my friends (dark souls like genre players, btw) disgust it and leave game at this point. Just try it and you will understand.
5) Add here stupid hitboxes of monsters and bosses when you can't hit the target right in front of you.
6) It's almost impossible to lay proper hit on monsters which stand on small stones or hills.
7) When you stay out of enemy's attack range and use long range melee attack your hitbox will be extended to that attack as well, so gather all hits from enemy right to the face even if you far away.
8) Some bosses lacks clear visual effects of certain attacks or even don't fit your screen, some bosses have ridiculous amount of visual effects, add here stupid full face effects from other players and you lost because can't see what boss do in front of you. Visuals should be reasonable, what point in adding these if you force players to decrease their video settings to not disrupt gameplay?

And more more things to put here.

I would say it's one season game, so you can try and play it for a while, then drop it.
