tl;dr: If you are looking for a good action rpg, look elsewhere.

I finally got into the game and found that the microtransactions are very expensive. Sure, you can get away with playing for free, but you have to spend a lot of money to get new inventory tabs/bags or new stash tabs/bags. I'd rather just pay for a game and be able to unlock all those things than buy things piecemeal like this. I know what they were going for, and I like the gameplay, but they are competing with Path of Exile, and they are just not better.

I don't need to touch on the disconnection/can't connect issues that plagued the game on day one (since everyone already has), but that seems to be over now. The real issue is the real price you pay to play a "free" game. The cost of this game is just too much. I'll stick with Grim Dawn, PoE, or Diablo 2/3 (not 4, those devs just don't know what made the previous games fun).

The gameplay was fun, from what I played of it, very similar to PoE. I didn't have any lag or stuttering or poor framerates.

If they gave you more starting inventory bags or stash tabs, it would be better, but the price to buy more is just too ridiculous. I mean, look at the price of the Founder Packs. Kinda lets you know all you need to know.
