This game was a cash grab they 100% did not feel like going forward with after launch. there has been no updates aside from them claiming they'll one day come back to this game and the other game theyre actively working on still isnt even out of the Feral Heart/Impressive Title phase of being nothing but a glorified chat with character creation thats minimal at best. Archotek was created first and didn't get any love for YEARS before they came up with an excuse for it. Scam team and abandonware game.
