    Elsword is fun, for one day.
    I played this for 2 weeks and got bored almost immediately, leveling is tedious, spending real-life money on a game that's free is stupid, and what is the story line?
    Leveling really is annoying and a lot of dedicated players will agree with me on that. It's not worth leveling up. I thought this game was free. The K-ching price is unbelievable. I swear    Elsword is fun, for one day.

    I thought this game was free. The K-ching price is unbelievable. I swear somewhere out there kids on Elsword are crying. I had a close friend (who still play the game) spend over $100. You can buy like 2 legitimately good game with that money. WHY COSTUME SETS AND PETS?
    Finally the indistinguishable plot. Maybe if I payed more attention I can collect clues!
    I refuse to read a manga to understand why the hell I am continuing to play the game.
    Seeing that there's 23 positive review, I heard that Elsword community is good(if you're high level which my friend is), so If you want to hang up with kids, teens, and adults via game. This totally is the game for you.
    Not underrated in the least bit my friends. Overrated? Close.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Elsword is definitely an underrated game. Though sadly, not by much. The storyline is unclear and not very relevant. In fact, characters who were once hated are very much welcomed into the communities that attempted to kill them previously. The menus are a tad confusing, but nothing a little experimentation won't fix. Also, it doesn't provide much of a tutorial, but this works fine for those who like to experiment, like with older sidescroller games. The combat system is a bit unbalanced as well, especially to those with ranged characters. However, the amount of customization is beyond amazing. There are nearly limitless possibilities and the game never forces you into microtransactions. The community is a bit competitive nowadays, though. So if you're looking to make new friends, that will be unlikely. The game is fast paced at first, but later levels require an excessive amount of dungeon grinding which gets annoying and tedius.… Expand

    Elsword isn't the most polished game, but it does beat-em-up action quite well. Between the pets, the gear, the PVP, the costumes, and even the boss-rush modes, there's a good deal of content waiting to be plumbed by gamers that want a bit more action and skill from their MMOs. It's at least worth a look.

    An overall bad game that feels cheap in every part of it. When the matter comes to money it's a rip-off . Fun only in the first hour.
