Highly recommend this MMO, the hugest compliment I could give this game is that I found out that It wasn't pay to win or pay to skip (the grind), the battlepass is 100% cosmetics.
"Oh my, a free MMO that isn't pay to win nor pay to skip? And the only things you can buy are cosmetics?"
The core gameplay loop is addictive, and some of the side quests actually made me emotional, which is surprising considering this is an MMO.

The most glaring issue I have with this game is the seasonal resets, essentially all progression except items, weapons, weapon mods etc. in the previous season are wiped, a system kinda like rust. This makes me scratch my head, why does an MMO with a massive world and campaign need a server wipe? You're just gonna lose at least a 1/4 of your player base because no one is happy to hear that their progress will be wiped, it'll destroy player motivation to keep playing.

HOWEVER, I did hear that the developers know this system is unpopular, and may be open minded to remove this wipe feature all together, which I hope they do, otherwise it'll nuke the player base and Netease will be in the next youtube video - "What went wrong with Once Human?"
