Imma be honest, I tried this once in like 2014 and couldn't get into it at all. 5-6 years later I picked it up because Grendel was hot to me, aaaand now I've clocked in a good number of hours. It's got a nice gameplay loop and probably the most engaging gameplay I've seen in an MMO, but it's bogged down with overcomplicated resource gathering and grinding. Its story from what I can tell is pretty much a joke, and unfortunately the game tends to try to force-feed it to you. In any case, I find the general concept and aesthetic to be cool and I still find Grendel pretty hot. If you think you'll like the game from the look of the gameplay, you probably will. Just be aware that it's a massive grind.
