Hey, did I get here before Ant or rms for once?

   Dunno much about it; it's a free-to-play MMORPG (which is 
   never a good starting point) with a lot of ad copy focused 
   on cooking and crafting, and mixed reviews to boot. Apparently 
   the game is very pay-to-win and there's a lot of grind that 
   can only be alleviated by buying DLC and MTX. I think 
   I'll pass.


Even The Number disapproves of this one.
