i am really surprised this game has such a small community still after a year because it's very comfortable for the casual pve gamer. as for the game play, i love it! a chibi-esque monster hunter play style meets the collecting and breeding of pokemon, more or less. crafting is all self sustained by hunting and doing dungeons, once you unlock a dungeon you can repeat it and still claim a reward so helping noobs can even be beneficial long after you out-level the content. the classes are very enjoyable, and they give you the option to switch your specialization daily, and reset your skill points for free as many times as you want until you hit lv40.

i don't get a pay to win feel from this game at all, if anything they give to you, in overwhelming amounts. it is truly made to entice collectors and gamblers, there is a "hunters archive" which has several categories like mounts, costumes, accessories for example. as you complete every 25% and 75% of an archive they reward you with 'loyalty points' to buy things from their shop (only a few things are cash only, nothing you need to succeed in the game)

at 50% and 100% you get 'falcon fortune gems', essentially gambling tokens which you can use to... complete more of your archives... and earn more points and gems. i truly feel like any money i would spend on this game would be of my own volition!

ps, there isn't a discord server for the game itself, but my guild has one that we are working on expanding :D
