    Better off going through the official site. They always have a 7 day free trial and it's currently on sale for half off.

    It's 50% off on Steam too.
    Yup. Still better getting it off Steam due to limitations with Steam version of the game.

    What are the micro transactions like in this game? I’m downloading the trial right now because I have nothing to lose but I figured I would ask.

    The microtransacrion model is wickedly insidious if you are an impulse spender.



    Most recent example - last patch they introduced a mechanic to gain higher grade knowledge automatically as you hunt mobs, and if you hit 8000 S grade knowledge points you get + 20% item drops.



    At the same time they added 2 bird pets you can purchase as a combo pack (birds have the ability to give you higher grade knowledge) so basically enticing players to buy bird pets.



    The cash shop has lots ot examples like this that make your gameplay many times easier if you spend the cash




    Eeeeshhh. Thanks for the heads up.

    Yes, because on Steam you can Refund it if you play it less than 2 hours. gg
