This game is still dog shit. The only progress they've really made is adding some more content, the core of the game is still a mess and I have a feeling it's never going to improve, either they don't know how to do it, or they can't. The server side/net code stuff is still fucking awful like it was when I played long ago, which further ruins the shit combat system. Chances are if they've made no progress at all on improving the core features of the game by now, they probably will never do so. Even if they manage to do so, at this slow rate of development, it will probably be in 5+ years and there will be something else more modern and better on the market. The game's also pretty fucking dead, with hardly anyone from the original player count returning to test patches, even with the very few players spread across server, the servers and netcode still struggle too.
It's honestly sad, but my feeling on the game is that it's nothing more than a vision and a dream that is never going to achieve anywhere near what they wanted, kind of like OKAM lol.
