Now don't misunderstand me, I enjoy the game but the slow combat truly hinders the PVP experience. I also wish for a PVE mode as the PVE in the game does require skill and knowledge and it is an entertaining experience for me at least. I will quickly go over the pros and cons of the game.


Pros

+Class Design is Cool

The class design of druid is actually quite cool as there are many tricks a druid can do to traverse the dungeon and engage in combat. An example is a druid shapeshifting into rat to jump through closed doors with a small window (hopefully this is intended gameplay as it adds a cool trick and adds to the depth of the class).

+PVE is Entertaining

PVE is pretty cool and difficult which is why I wish for a strict PVE mode for a new Dark and Darker community to grow and support the game.


Cons

-Slow Combat

The combat in the game is very slow as almost every piece of equipment detracts the player's movement speed. (It's like watching a bunch of sloths roleplaying as fantasy characters with how slow everyone is)

-PVE Content is Difficult

The hardy monsters and unforgiving traps will likely be the player's main enemy as other players merely act as griefers as there is often nothing left to showcase PVP skill.

-Loss of Equipment Upon Death Prevents Gear Progression

This game design rears its flaws as it reinforces a risk averse playstyle in players. In the end, the game has no sense of gear progression.


Overall the game has some interesting parts due to its good class design and PVE content but its slow combat hinders the PVP experience. The game is F2P and is worth a try but keep in mind the game's shortcomings as it can outweigh the pros of the game if you let it bother you.
