Frustrating more than fun
As someone who used to be a "no life" for Elsword starting in 2015, this game has really declined over the years. I still love the game and the great memories I had with it in the past, but the game is just different now. I watched the community get smaller and smaller as servers went from always busy to pretty much empty unless there was an event/freebies. Now, you can consider yourself lucky if you encounter other players in a non-endgame dungeon (Early game is also rushed to get you into endgame faster now). The P2W is pretty rough and the in-game economy is horrible as well. I would've recommended Elsword in the past, but now I believe that it just isn't worth it anymore. Edit: Their anti-cheat system also somehow opens Internet Explorer and if that doesn't show you their age I don't know what will D:

-Costumes are pay to win (except for the free ones they give to you for free every 11 months or so) -PvP is fun but lag so its not fun -RNG is rigged -Game balance doesn't exist -Have fun upgrading to a +13 weapon (probably less than 1% chance from +12 to +13, also getting resources to upgrade you gear is pay to win) -Mounts are pay to win -Pets are pay to win -Economy is dying/dead -Game is dying/dead -Most elsword youtubers have 'quit' or 'left' the game or have just been straight up banned by KOG themselves Update: game is still ♥♥♥♥

Nearly 10 years ago I would be talking all about this game and it was something I get excited to just play
Nearly 10 years ago I would be talking all about this game and it was something I get excited to just play. It was enjoyable and quite filled with people who share the same fun but fast forward to today and I thought about why not give it a revisit. Sadly it's nearly a deserted ghost town with the towns being actually empty and matchmaking is working but rarely you will find someone to play with if at all. So, I hate to say this but this game isn't worth the investment anymore but for the sake of respect and the enjoyment it gave me years ago I will put this as positive review. Farewell childhood game,
