Game devs are too woke to allow the kinda of conflict and drama that makes MMOs fun. Any perceived insult or disagreement (wrongthink) will result in moderation and ban. I don't mind hardcore grinding in a game but it's not fun when there is no reason to grind.. no endgame. The usual endgame would be clan wars, conquest, resource appropriation but that's not gonna happen in a woke game. I'm sure anything that gets spicy will get players and clans banned for being 'toxic'.
The building and crafting (grinding) is enjoyable for me if not a little derivative, thus why i've played for over 450 hours. If you played any similar games to this, you will be able to jump right in without needing instructions or guides. Nothing new or innovative here. The crafting is the same olde make 100000 of X and level up.
I have no confidence in the social aspect of the game as per above and what I'm seeing lately. Namely; no one in my clan has logged in in three weeks. I seldom see anyone around or new plots. The large clans that I know of are ghost towns when I visit them.
I would refund but I noticed these issues too late.

I really love the sandbox feel of the game. I'm not forced to play a specific way. I can do crafting, PvP, RP, or adventuring if I feel like it. If I feel social and I can join a group and kill a boss. If not, I can do my own thing. Can't wait till they get navel battles into the game.
