Overall it's fun. It's a standard (extremely pretty) TPS so it's good brainless entertainment. Basic movement and aiming controls are awful; moving around during combat or flying feels very clunky; I'm constantly fighting to aim at what I intend to. This isn't helped by the deliberate camera shake and the lag which makes it hard to aim any skills. Needs way more optimisation. It says I'm getting 70fps but it feels more like 25 most of the time. It may be the servers rather than the graphics. I get huge stutters during combat where I can't move my reticule. AI is non-existent, combat is mostly running around looking for people to shoot at who are standing still not doing anything.
