Land of Empires Review 2022: Is it good?

Land of Empires Review 2022: Is it good?

Land of Empires: Immortal is a brand new strategy game on mobile with promising graphic. The game seems to be a city builder primary and a side RPG as a secondary game at first sight, without wasting any more of your time, let’s check if that is true.

What is the Story of Land of Empires?

The demons are attacking!
The war between the forces of light and darkness has raged on for a millennium and spilled over into the mortal realms.
The demons have returned to wreak havoc on humanity. Cities had been falling with numerous lives eking out a living. The land is in desperate need of a savior.
It’s your time to shine. Lead the survivors, forge them into an army, defeat the demons, reclaim lost lands, rebuild fallen cities, and restore the glory of humanity.

How is the Game play of Land of Empires?

The game starts with an emergency message about the dead army roaming the land. You continue the dialogue and takes control of El-Cid that will help you go through the tutorial. The tutorial switch between dialog and combat, in order to advance you will need to defeat the enemy waves. To help you advance, they will offer you some assistance of a legendary hero: Valkyrie. Your heroes will fight in auto battle, so you just need to watch the show for now. Once you cleared all the waves, a little animation will play about the situation of the land.

City Builder

After the video, you will now switch to city builder mode and this is the second part of the tutorial will start. Be ready to be used to switch between dialogue and performing an action. Learn to build, upgrade, collect resources, liberate lands, free villagers, expand your territory until the tutorial is completely over. If you manage to finish all of them, then congratulations you are now in the real game with a shield on your city.

From now everything is rather straight forward, be used to switch between inside and outside your settlement for the rest of your game play as most of the action gonna require you to do so. Inside your settlement, you will be building and upgrading your buildings, researching new technologies, training troops, upgrading your dragon, leveling and upgrading your heroes. Let’s not forget to upgrade your heroes gear and troop formation, drawing the daily summons and collecting daily free stamina.

Outside your settlement, you will see an open world in landscape. Everything from players to enemies show up on the map, you can also see your own city too. As all city builder, you will need different resources to train troops or to build and upgrade buildings. So this is where you can send our troops to collect them on specific mines. You can also attack undead troops roaming around but be careful not trying to fight high level ones. The game normally give you an indication if your are going to win or lose a battle. You can also attack other player but i would strongly advice to avoid making enemy at the start of the game.

Hero Battle

If you remember about the tutorial part with El-Cid at the start, you might be happy as you will have a mode for it. Select between 3 heroes of each class which is Infantry, Archery and Cavalry. Once you selected your heroes, you can move them either in the back or front position depending on their ability. You can now start the battle where your heroes will run through a path and fight waves of enemies. Note that your hero will charge up a bar during battle and will activate a powerful skill when it’s full. The last wave will normally have a boss at the end, it will have similar ability as your heroes. A charge up skill that will kill all your heroes easily if not deal quickly, so be careful.

Battlefield

At some point, you will have access to control an army of each category under each heroes. Here you will select your 3 heroes of each category, then select the number of soldier for each category and let’s not forget your dragon. The amount of soldier will depend on your heroes and technology level. Each category will have strength and weaknesses, so better but a balanced army for each category at the start. Now you can start the battle, you will see your heroes and army fighting against another army and heroes. Sadly you can’t change or control the on going battle, you will need to just watch 2 computer fighting each other.

Stealth battle

Land of Empire has another mode where you control only 1 hero on a small map. The map will have sentry guard with a range of sight which you need to avoid and sometime you will need to kill them in order to move forward. To kill a guard you will need to get behind them and you will see a button pop up that will trigger an animation of a take down. You can also hide in the wheat field or wait to ambush the guard. The mission is to save some prisoners at the end of the map, avoid sounding the alarm and try to sneak away as best as you can. If your familiar with Commando or Splinter Cell game, the mission should be pretty easy to complete.

Other

As usual here a list of things that will appear on your game which are important, here’s a brief description of them.

  • Quests – Daily, Research and Achievement quests are here
  • Alliance – Donation, Alliance Tech, Help, Events are here
  • Hero – Upgrade, level up and unlock your heroes here
  • Campaign – Complete the quests to know more on the story and obtain more rewards
  • Items – Your inventory
  • Mail – All message will be here
  • VIP – Collect or increase your VIP rank for daily rewards
  • Events – All your on going events should be here

What type of Graphic does Land of Empires use?

Land of Empires is in a full 3D graphic, the game looks awesome in all the available modes. Beautiful both inside and outside the settlement, the heroes look well detailed, combat animation looks cool. Heroes are animated, that even the jiggle physics of the female might make you stare for some seconds. Clean interface with straight forward action button that triggers when need in some game mode. Skins for city and troops looks good too if those matter to you. You can see a good amount of detail on the world map including animals and plants, troops marching, etc.

How is the Controls in Land of Empires?

I think it’s the elephant in the room, control is not the forte of Land of Empire. Beside selecting an army, heroes and dragon to collect resources or attacking enemies. All the battle are on auto battle which mean you have little to no control at all once you send your troop away. In hero battle, the thing applies, you cannot change formation or position of your heroes during waves once battle has started. You just watch the AI battle, in the end making the game seems like a simulation where all you do is tap one button and watch.

Sound & Music

In terms of music, Land of Empires have different background music for each game mode. The music is going to be on auto repeat for your entire game play, so muting the game won’t change much your play through. Part of the story does have some voice acting but it’s another game where they either run out of budget or simply time to do so for the whole game. Heroes does have some lines which they use when using their skills. The sound effect are good, no complain here.

What is the Game Length of Land of Empires?

Land of empires is a city builder, making it one of the most time consuming game at the start but things will gradually change to a passive game later on. The daily takes around 30 min to complete which is great. But in order to progress faster, you may need to do more than daily quests. You will need some dedication and time to be able to keep up with the events to have a decent progression. Events duration may vary from hours to some minutes, while other are only simple trivial quests of you playing the game normally like collecting resources or training troops. Progression will slow down later where things will start taking weeks to upgrade.

Is Land of Empire Free to play?

Land of Empires is F2P, you will have access to the complete game with enough resources to progress steadily. However the game is not that F2P in terms of events and accessibility for some heroes and dragon. Events are very hard to complete as F2P meaning you will have less reward and have a slow progression overall. By the time you will manage to catch up to cash player, the game would have already have new content and cash upgrades.

Is Land of Empire Pay to win?

It’s no surprise that Land of Empires is very P2W. The game scale tilt towards players who spend the most, to advance faster and become stronger you will need to spend money. Events are mostly a battle of wallets instead of wits and strategy, they are mostly reserved for cash players as most of the time quests will favor those who are willing to spend some money on the game. Some heroes, skins, frames and dragon is exclusively obtainable via cash and they do give you additional bonus stats. Also the VIP system will always indicate if the game going to be F2P or P2W.

Ads

No ads.

Microtransaction

The cash shop will have multiple packages like monthly, weekly, VIP, dragon, heroes and gems for all type of spenders. Price will vary between $0.99 to $99.99 which is the typical price of packages for a mobile game. But spenders should be careful as many packages are not worth your money and as always keep an eye on the amount you will spend. Many of these packages don’t have a limit, so you may end up spending more than you would want at the end of the month. Note the presence of random reward system via a gacha system which is consider gambling as you are not guaranty to obtain the best reward unless you spend a lot of money. So as usual be careful when your spending or your children is spending on these packages.

What is the Life span of Land of Empire?

Land of Empires is a solid city builder game with competition as it’s main foundation to keep the player interested. Whether your a passive player who plays time to time or a hardcore gamer who is online all day, the game gives you the choice to choose your pace. Good graphic, events and diverse heroes make the game more interesting, thus making a good player base easily for long and short term. The game should be fine for some years if they continue to deliver fair events and new contents.

Benefits

Without a doubt the game promotes quick thinking and formulating strategies but that isn’t entirely the truth if you are not fighting against opponent with equal power. So it is not really has the same benefits as your classic RTS games but has close enough for you to have some fun. Communication skill will greatly improve special for clan managers. Command and communicate to an efficient manner with members of different languages, become better than any Human resources in real life! Learn things like survival of the fittest or united you stand and divided you fall.

Suggestions

  • Make all items in the game available for F2P
  • Change the quests in event that require you to spend to complete the last 10% of the event
  • Make the other dragon not cash exclusive
  • More control in battle mode
  • Allow change in formation between waves
  • Put some bonus for using a group of heroes, else other would become useless
  • Increase the rate of legendary fragment in gacha
  • Better rewards in events
  • Easier way to obtain Shield after been attacked

Updates

They have on going events ongoing nearly every day and week. They even have a calendar for you to keep up with the list of incoming events. They always announce in advance changes and fixes in the coming updates and does communicate every bit of change in the game.

Should you play Land of Empire?

Land of Empires is a solid game with good graphic, good amount of content, good player base and is a good alternative to other more popular city builder like Rise of kingdoms. For the answer i would say Yes but it will largely depend on what server your going to start playing and what type of player you will encounter. The answer would be a big Yes if your going to spend. The game rewards you enough for your money spend and let you enjoy the game at it’s fullest.

If your F2P, tread carefully or stay away from these type of games. As F2P has little benefits, a slow progression and will be in disadvantage at all stage of the game. Beside the never ending war between F2P and P2W, the game is almost a carbon copy of all other city builder. Same type of events, heroes, upgrade system and even game play except the sneak mission in the tutorial part. The other battle mode sucks as they are all in auto battle which in the end make you just tap the play button and watch the AI fight. So how is that call playing the game? Thank you for reading till the end, i will see you on another review.

Artery Gear Fusion Review 2022: Is it the best RPG?

Artery Gear Fusion Review 2022: Is it the best RPG?

Artery Gear Fusion is a turn based RPG on a mix of anime theme and kantai(mecha and girls together). Form a team of 4 units to battle against the enemy known as the puppets. The game is said to be as good as Epic Seven, let’s check out in depth if the game is as good as it’s reputation.

What is the Story of Artery Gear Fusion?

The Puppet War is about to break out, and the human world hangs by a thread, but the two remaining forces, “Frontier” and “Autoluna”, that don’t trust each other and cannot reach a comprehensive strategic cooperation… The doomsday, people’s hearts and war, the truth of the world will slowly emerge.
You will transform into a joint fleet formed by the two forces, the commander of “Union”, and lead the mecha girl squad known as “Artery Gear” to fight against the unknown creature “Puppet”.

How is the Game play of Artery Gear Fusion?

Artery Gear Fusion starts with a short intro where the main character “Nio” is preparing to land on earth to fight the enemy. This is the tutorial where you will learn about using your skill in combat. After a mix of conversation and combat, you will encounter a boss. Note that they will borrow you some of the best units during this fight. Once you beat the boss, the game will continue with some conversation again, then will point you to continue your mini tutorials on stage 1-1.

The game play is simple, form a team of 4 units, select a stage, then move from point A to point B and clear all the waves using your skills. Of course you will have multiple mechanics to more depth and make it more interesting but the general idea is like that in all RPG. Most of the time will be managing our gears and units or mostly grinding stages for resources. This is a turn based RPG where speed is king but some unit (Alice)can boost the charge bar of other units in order to get a turn before the enemy.

Artery Gear

The units in this game are name AG, those cute mecha girl who you will need to level up and equipped. You will have 5 different class with 3 different element. The class are

  • Striker – Damage dealer specialist
  • Balance – Bruiser unit
  • Tank – Meat shield
  • Tactics – Units that mostly buffs
  • Healer – Units that heals

There’s a 6 one but they are not for combat, these units give you experience boost. You can also awaken a unit by obtaining duplicate of that unit up to 6 times. Let’s not forget you can upgrade technology of a unit on each 10 level, up to 6 times. The game also uses a pyramid system to upgrade your units up to 6 star. Sacrifice low star unit in order to upgrade them to the next star.

  • 3 star
  • 4 star – 3 Star + 3 Star + 3 Star
  • 5 star – 4 Star + 4 Star + 4 Star + 4 Star
  • 6 star – 5 Star + 5 Star + 5 Star +5 Star + 5 Star

Luckily this game does give you fodders and units that are already max level to make the grinding less gruesome. You can always buy those units in the shop or simply grind some stage to obtain them. They are rather easy to obtain but energy wise, it’s better you wait for events where you will need to grind currency to exchange, then you can get those units at the same time. Get two bird with one stone.The game does have an elemental weakness and strength system. The basic Molten beats Crystal, Crystal beats Thunder and Thunder beats Molten. No light or dark unit which i like very much.

Formation

Once you have obtain enough units you will select 4 of them to fight. Forming a balance team is not too important early on but later when you will fight boss, you will need a proper team formation. a healer, a tank and a dps, the 4th unit can be anything. Position 1 and 2 are normally position in the front and the 3 and 4 are the back line. The first two position will receive most of the attack but that does not mean your back line won’t get attacked.

Equipment

Gear is probably more important than your AG later on, those are your equipment which you will need to tackle harder contents. They have different rarity such as Green, Blue, Purple and Gold. Each rarity adds a line of sub stats to the gear. Meaning a green gear will have 1 line of sub stats and Gold will have 4 line of sub stats. But that’s not all, the sub stats also have the same rarity system, so getting gold sub stats is consider the best gear in the game.

Don’t forget that all sub stats have a range from minimum to maximum value which make the gear system a really complex. So before building a unit, you will need to see what stats the unit need the most. Good news is that you have people that already created a spreadsheet that can calculate those for you. So you will just need to farm the gear and evaluate if it’s a good or bad gear. Later, you can disassemble those gear for gold and a rare material which can be used to cast later on.

Other content

To avoid long and boring article about each of them. I will just describe briefly other content of the game that are important. Here is the list of any other thing on your screen.

  • Main Story – The campaign of the game with currently 2 type of difficulty Normal and Hard
  • Battle Operation – All your resources dungeons for technology, gear, tower, gold, experience and boss fight
  • Exercise – PVP mode
  • Mission – Daily, weekly and achievement quests
  • AG – All your units are here
  • Team formation – Form multiple team of units here
  • Fleet – Produce gold and cat orb, send units for exploration(dispatch mode), increase affection of units, fuse and cast gear
  • Alliance – Guild with multiple people to fight guild boss and obtain currency
  • Recruit – This is where you summon new units
  • Warehouse – All your equipment are here
  • Supply – The Shop where you can exchange your currency for gear and summon ticket, etc
  • Rookie Training – List of quests to help you progress
  • Union Order – Battle pass
  • Event – All event are listed here
  • Codex – Information on all the units
  • Dispatch – Expedition mode to obtain resources

What Graphic does Artery Gear Fusion use?

Artery Gear Fusion uses a 2D animated art to represent the units and a static image as background. The illustration are top notch with high amount of details and you get to see the animated version if you use them as background. Unfortunately this is the only way you can see them animated as you will have no other way to see them move, but there’s nothing big your missing as tapping the unit will only change her face expression.

In combat the game, the graphic is a linear 2D with miniature version of your units including the enemy. The question is why change the art style to this? Anyway, the interface looks neat, the text conversation color are good and font are at the right side. As for people who are here for the fan service, you will be served. Skins are really cool but is only available for some units right now.

How is the Controls of Artery Gear Fusion?

Despite a rather simple look, the game does have a good layer of strategy which you have to control. Before battle you will need to set your units, gear, support units and position them correctly. In battle you will need to choose between 3 skills depending on the unit. Note that the auto play will mess the skill combination of your units most of the time if not set properly. For example use the dps ultimate before applying def reduction debuff on the enemy. But don’t worry you can set up the AI for auto in this game.

The AI has 2 drop down for each skill, those 2 are the condition that need to be fulfill. For example if you want your healer to heal after the hp is below 25% and never use the skill as priority if the condition is not met. It may sound difficult at the start but you should grasp the concept easily. During combat you can call a support unit to buff or deal damage to the enemy when the energy bar is fill. The energy bar fills up every time you take an action so be sure to know how to use it efficiently.

Sound & Music

Artery Gear Fusion has one of the best rhythmic music i’ve heard for a mobile game. The game sound effects are also good, clashing of steel or firing a laser beam, etc. All units have it’s own voice acting and does have multiple line. You do unlock more line when you level up your affection with the unit. However the game has no voice acting for any conversation in the story which is a bummer.

What is the Game Length of Artery Gear Fusion?

The daily quests takes around 10 min to complete. But in order to progress in the game, you will have to do some grinding depending on what you need. Luckily they have a good QOL(Quality of Life) which let you grind 30 times a stage if you have the energy and if you already cleared the stage. Meaning you can farm gear or other resources without having to stay and watch all 30 runs. Campaign and Events are relatively short, the story between each combat extends it.

Is Artery Gear Fusion Free to play?

Yes, Artery Gear Fusion is very F2P friendly. You will receive sufficient amount of resources and freebies to be able to complete everything in the game. You even get enough gems to do at least 2 or 3 pull for every banner which is very nice for F2P. However you should understand as a F2P that you can’t obtain all the girls and that you will reach some bottleneck of gold and energy at some point.

Is Artery Gear Fusion Pay to win?

No, Artery Gear Fusion is not P2W, Even that it does have potential of been one. As a spender you will have some advantage compare to a F2P. You will have much more resources to summon, do more runs for gear and obtain more gold. The only place where you will outshine a F2P is PVP and World Boss which is quite normal for every mobile game.

Ads

No ads beside some pop up of the game time limited packages.

Microtransaction

The cash shop has nearly everything similar to all other mobile games. The classic daily, weekly and monthly packages, Battle Pass, Skins, in game currency refill, gold refill and monthly subscription. The price of the packages varies between $0.99 to $99.99, as usual be careful and responsible when spending in a Gacha game.

What is the Life span of Artery Gear Fusion?

Artery Gear Fusion has already got the attention of many fans and players, although they had a rough start due to limited daily stamina refill issue but they manage to fix it with events and new contents in the game. They also posted a roadmap so that you can see what’s coming next and what to expect from the game. Another positive point, they do listen to the community and does not take years to answer you. That being said, i think they are the right direction and if they continue on this path. Artery Gear Fusion will be still with us for 2 or 3 years from now.

Benefits

As all RPG, managing your time, resources and units is one of the main aspect of the game. I think you will learn how to efficiently manage things to a level as a real manager. Don’t forget you will also benefit from trying different units and strategy in arena and in the game. While many of people may like the Fan service part, i would advice parents to keep this game away from your kids.

Suggestions

  • Increase the amount of gold from the gold dungeon
  • Add a dungeon to for gear upgrade materials
  • Raise the difficulty in Hard mode
  • Don’t put cat orb count as a units as they take a lot of space in your inventory
  • Develop the affection system as you can only do 2 things
  • Possibility to see the animated version of a unit in AG
  • More exclusive weapon for other unit
  • Longer and less grind events
  • Change the log in reward as some reward are insignificant after a certain level
  • Exchange Technology chips
  • Upgrade or exchange skill upgrade materials
  • Adjust the size of the background unit
  • Add multiple unit in the background

Updates

They update on every 2 weeks with new banner for summon, new events and bug fixes.You can check their road map if you want to know more about it in the community section. Any new content takes a bit more time.

Should you play Artery Gear Fusion?

It’s definitely a big YES. The game is gold, good graphics, good animation, good combat, good music and the list goes on. The game did have some issue with stamina early on but they manage to solve it. No stamina = No grind = No resources = No account progression. Another issue the game currently is still having, the events are too short and are too easy to complete. You can complete the whole game in 2 days and events within 2 hours which leave you nothing to do beside grinding to upgrade units. I really hope they can fix this issue as soon as possible.

I had a really great time playing Artery Gear Fusion, had a blast with building and trying different type of units to complete the target elimination. The campaign was relatively easy to beat, even the hard mode was not really that hard. The girls are lovable specially Corax(for me) in the background. Anyway Artery Gear Fusion hold a special place in my top list of good mobile game and sadly this game is not in par with the giant like E7, at least not yet. Thank you for reading till the end, i will see you next time.

Dark Nemesis: Infinite Quest Review: Is it good?

Dark Nemesis: Infinite Quest Review: Is it good?

Dark Nemesis Review of a game which is instance base MMORPG in a Dark Fantasy world. Where you will fight your way through horde of monster and equip yourself with the best gears and pets. The game trailer look very promising so let’s take a look at the real game.

https://youtu.be/U8_51WNVPts

What is the Story of Dark Nemesis?

We slowly began to forget the old prophecy…We cling to foolish hatred, embodied by war. Mortals blindly rush towards their own doom, blissfully unaware of what the Goddess of Light has in store for them. The Crystal of Light, separated from the Goddess, drifted listlessly through the timeless abyss. The Deepfrosts found the crystal, and displayed it in their museum…Yet the Raven Cult, covetously eyes the crystal from the shadows…Once again, the flames of war shall burn!

That’s all that being told about the story. We don’t know who we are and why we came to the museum? Maybe more will be told in the future…maybe they forget to add the part where you fit in this story.

How is the Game play of Dark Nemesis?

You starts the game by selecting between 4 class. Don’t worry we will comeback in more details about the classes later on. For now let’s focus on the main plot. After you choose your class, you will have a little cinematic of you making an impressive entry in the museum. The museum is already under attack and it seems the crystal has already been taken. This is your tutorial where you will learn movement, skills, dodge and learn about different type of enemies including a boss.

Once you beat the mini boss, you will enter the lobby aka Mirror City. From now on you will go on a roller coaster of chain quests, the game will guide you through mini tutorials each time you unlock a new content. Dark Nemesis is the type of game that unlocks more content as you level up. The main quests will guide you to instances who represent the core of the game. Which consists of moving from point A to point B in a map while completing the main objectives.

The instances are rather short and some stage will have a boss at the end of it. But Dark Nemesis isn’t all about just fighting instances, it has a role playing part where you will have to look after your character and equipment. This is where the game starts getting complicated as you will unlock more and more ways to increase your battle power. I will try my best to give as briefly as possible a description on those “complicated” things but first lets check out the classes.

Classes

As mention before you will have 4 classes but things are a bit different in Dark Nemesis. As you can switch between 3 subclass before any instances. They are normally between 3 categories namely for PVE and PVP. The 3rd class is a more supportive subclass for both PVE and PVP. Here are the 4 classes.

  • Assassin – Melee DPS with high mobility
  • Warrior – Melee Tanky with CC(crowd control)
  • Gunslinger – Range DPS with high mobility
  • Mage – High Burst Aoe with high mobility

If you pick the wrong class, you will have the option to switch to another class for free later on. So no need to restart the game or create another character if you messed up. Also i noticed that it doesn’t really matter as long as your power level are ok. Of course that doesn’t apply for PVP contents.

Set

You can combine and awaken your set of armor here. Note that you have 8 part of different equipment to upgrade and awaken. Gear will have different Tiers, the game currently stop at Tier 13. Good luck on combining your gears.

Forge

This is where you can enhance, refine, augment, enchant, inlay gems, infuse your gears. It’s a complete and solid forge compared to other game in my opinion.

Spirit

Spirit are your mount and also your weapon form. Your mount transform into a weapon form when you fight. Here you can put Inscription, Morph, Resonance and upgrade your mount. Some mount have synergy with other mount but you will need to unlock them for that.

Companion

Those are your pets, they can assist you during battle and will follow everywhere. They offer passive buffs and active skills. You can upgrade them and set a group of them in a synergy formation depending on your build. The more your unlock the better passive stats you will obtain.

Wings

Have similar function as your pets. Get additional stats as you unlock more of them. You can upgrade to get evolution points to unlock passives on them.

Skill

You have 3 basic skill and 1 ultimate skill, the ultimate has up to 3 phase which you charge up during battle. Early release will trigger different reaction depending on how much charge it has.

Graphic

A good 3D graphic with a good amount of details on armors and pets. Nearly every equipment has glow effect so you won’t be disappointment in terms of graphic. The Interface is terrible, i felt like Tony Stark entering the Iron man suit without Jarvis to help me understand all the red dots and option available. After 2 week i managed to get a grasp of everything but i doubt some people would wait so long. You can’t zoom in and out or change camera angle which is a bummer, why?

Controls

Dark Nemesis has auto play function for most of it’s content. Although you can play manually and that the control are rather easy. Movement joystick on the Left and Skills on the Right, you will also have a dodge and 1 ultimate. The rest i would not call it control as it’s mostly tap a button to upgrade or equip or merge. Some instances require you to control your character manually as it’s power level requirement is high. So to avoid losing time and avoid dying with a stupid AI jumping in the middle of the boss telegraph attack, just play the game manually.

Sound & Music

Another game with a repetitive background music playing in loop. Even the music is epic but you will turn it off after some hours of hearing it again and again. At least they do change the music when you go in instances but again it is the same music for all instances. The sound effect are good from slashing sounds to monsters different sounds. You do have some voice acting at the start of the story which were not that bad, shame they did only the first chapters of the story. Voice acting will always get your attention no matter how senseless or boring the story is.

What is the Game Length of Dark Nemesis?

Prepare yourself to spend at least several hours to clear the quests. Note that the daily quests does not takes around 30 min to complete but the list of quests for events does stack up later on. The more you level up, the more content will be unlock and the things to complete daily as you have limited entry per day. The events is the game is like old school MMO, it starts in specific time of the day. So if you want to keep up with the game, you will need to stay on the game or log in during the specific time.

Is Dark Nemesis Free to play?

If the game had only PVE contents, Dark Nemesis would have been a very F2P game. But it is the case, despite giving a lot of ways of earning ingame currency(diamonds). It does not really match up in terms of power level for PVP contents. You will have a very bad time in PVP modes where a player can 1 shot you with a skill. So this game is not F2P at all.

Is Dark Nemesis Pay to win?

Yes this game is where you will P2W. From VIP levels, battle pass, exclusive SS pets and spirits(mount) that will boost your battle power as long as you pay. The higher the battle power, the higher chance of winning in PVP contents. You can also carry other people in PVE contents and be rank top 3 in boss battle, etc, etc. I think you got the idea, the game is designed for spenders so it’s a very P2W game.

No ads.

Microtransaction

As mentioned above, the game have a large amount of options for spenders. Some package are worth buying but others are mostly gambling. As many packages and events are chance base which means your not guaranteed to obtain your ss pet or spirit. Those are the packages available in the shop, VIP, Battle passes, tickets, diamonds, new comers package, daily, weekly and monthly package. The shop is a real mess scattered around the game with different currency which is very confusing when your looking to buy something specific.

What is the Life span of Dark Nemesis?

In all honesty, Dark Nemesis has already doom itself in many ways. The game is a real mess with too much different currency, heavy P2W aspects, locking progression through your level, specific time event make things even harder for players to keep up. Dark Nemesis is trying to do too many things at a time and here is the results. The game had potential to be a really cool game but i don’t think any big change will happened.

Benefits

Managing your character and equipment has always been a good thing. You will learn a bit more about it in Dark Nemesis as you will spend quite a good amount of time doing it. The team up aspect is also nice, specially when your helping other players to clear instances. The Guild is a good place to meet and help new people around the world and learn some other language if you have foreign friends.

Should you play Dark Nemesis?

To be fair with Dark Nemesis, i would say at least try it if you like those kind of game. The game is fun at the start and have a huge amount of content. But too much content can turn against you specially in a mobile game. The game does offer a good amount of QOL to help clear those lengthy grind but locking most of content behind limited entry per day is a bad move. I really like the spirit, mount and glowing stuffs but the game became boring pretty quickly.

PVP was a nightmare to play, most are unplayable for F2P unless your a masochist who like watching getting killed again and again. Clearly there’s no balance between F2P and spenders, the gap between them is way too big. So in the end i would advice a skip if your not into overloading yourself with contents to grind everyday. For me it was not a bad game but it was poorly organized, let’s hope we can see something better later on.
