It has interest story and gameplay, at least to me. But gear progression make no sense at all. Example: let's say you have this gear you got from dungeon, making your attack power 1000 (making up for sake of example). To upgrade it to higher tier, you need this number of ingredients that come from a gear dropped in dungeon requiring a minimum of 1750+ attack power.
I don't know how friendly this game was to "newbies" before 2018, but I feel to make any progress in gear is to depend on "friendly" high level players in order to obtain all necessary ingredients for gear upgrades.
