Literally wrong. The character creator actually allows some crazy portrait level quality if people put in the time.
PS. I have 500 hours played and have done over hundreds of UNIQUE quests. I have done just under 50% of the ones in the game. So repetitive? Nope. I have hard cored this game and still haven't done more than 1/3 of the content. So yea. . .
You must be kidding... I have over 500 hours played, I have not done even 50% of the missions in the game. I am not max level I am 54. I do have good gear... but FAR from everything I want. I literally do 25 daily quests a day + 6 guild missions plus 4 hours grind, plus about a dozen new quests I have never done before a day. I craft, I manage workers, ext ext.
This is the least shallow MMO game I have played since Eve... It NEVER ends. There is literally not enough hours in the day for me to do everything I want in a day.
The author makes the game sound overly complicated... It isn't. A 20 minute quick start guide video will answer 99% of peoples questions about the game they could possibly have.
As for killing the young you do this in several quests. It is part of a theme tied to main story line. I can't say much without spoilers. But I will state the obvious you figure out after a few days. You are learning about the dark side of humanity through your interactions with the world. You are an Anti-hero.
Oh and there is no cash shop item for energy. Period. Authors wording makes it sound like there is. Game is hardly pay to win. It is far less pay to win than WoW for instance. Or Eve online. Unlike those games there is no magic way to get silver or buy a max level character. Put in the work in the ONLY way to level your toon and get gear. The only cash shop items that might help are pets that pick up loot for you saving you from clicking the ground, or a costume that gives you 10% more xp. (food buffs and potion buffs stack and give 8% each, scrolls give 5% and 10%, and they are cheap for ingame silver or loot items in the game) You also get 50% xp scrolls every few days if you spend daily rewards on them.
Essentially there is nothing you can buy to really get an advantage except maybe bag slots or character weight increase allowing you to farm mobs longer before selling your trash items.
