    Creo que este juego va a perdurar por su contenido que va dirijido a los jugadores, es un muy buen punto a favor, en comparación a Genshin Impact, desde la creación del personaje, historia, el MMO y el RPG, el gameplay es bueno, las armas y los personajes. Tiene de todo un poco, claro que se pudiera decir que es una copia de Genshin, pero mejorado.

    Magnificent game, with all the content that was missing in other games that were also derived from Zelda. Character Creation (with Human Skin Colors), Real MMO, Mounts, Chat, Quality of Life.

    Everything in this game represents freshness.

    Indeed, the game needs polishing. But its character customization system has so much potential. With more outfits, you can enjoy yourself in the anime world. The combat system is good but more mechanics could be added in future. Hope the dev team listen to the community and keeps improving Tower of Fantasy. Looking forward to the end game!

    As a Genshin Impact player, I think these two games are different. Tof is more like a MMORPG game which allows me to throw a party in the game. It was fun to see random people running around in the world and made me less lonely to play the game. When I played Genshin Impact, I could only get to play with my friend after level 16. It was such a tough journey playing alone. Thanks Tof! WhenAs a Genshin Impact player, I think these two games are different.

    Tower of Fantasy has a brilliant character creator. It’s a big plus. You’re able to create your own unique anime character with a large suite of options.
    And.. if I remember Genshin was not so generous about rewards when starting the game.
    So I'm keeping an eye on it. Let's see what will come of it. Since it's F2P, you have nothing to lose) TOF is definitely worth a try.

    Decent game to have fun with. People claim its a Genshin clone but I'd rather say its a open world Honkai instead. If you do want to comare it to Genshin at least here the Gatcha is much more generous (F2p playing since day1 and already have pulled 11 SSR units +1 from the starting box for new players)

    The game is not a Genshin Impact clone. It is Sci-Fi, and an MMORPG, neither of which Genshin Impact is, making it entirely different by main and sub-genre. It slightly borrows from Genshin Impacts world design. I would argue it is much more similiar to PSO2NG in just about every way. The ways that ToF is similiar with Genshin Impact, Genshin is the winner in nearly every category, and not by a small amount. But there is a place for both games and the amount of hate towards ToF is honestly petty and immature. The MMO aspect of Tower of Fantasy will attract a lot of people that wished Genshin Impact had a better online aspect, at the cost of some polish and overall quality.    … Expand

    Combat is hack an slash, elemental based, and weapon/stance swamping heavy. It can be used in a complex manner, however at level 30 there has nt been enemies that provide any challenge (like most mmos i hope/assume difficulty will increase at cap).

    Tower of Fantasy is an Anime-MMO that is set in the future. The story is about the planet calls Aida and the people take their resources through a tower named Tower of Fantasy. The planet has suffered war and radiation. The task is to survive in this world.

The story is about the planet calls Aida and the people take their resources through a tower named Tower of Fantasy. The planet has suffered war and radiation. The task is to survive in this world.

    You can choose between a male and female character. After a battle and escape the character doesn't have any memory of what happened before. A group of warriors finds the character and from there on, your story starts.

    The graphic is quite decent. There are certain ways of configurations. But at this point you gotta be careful because if you set the graphic on extreme and more, your graphic-card is going to heat over. My graphic-card temperature was about 80 degree Celsius when i set the graphics on extreme and more. So it is recommendable to lower the graphic settings on "good".

    The environment is detailed and motivates to discover and travel around. The Fighting style varies depend on what kind of a weapon you choose. If you choose certain weapons, you get the imitation-status of wanderers who are missing until now. It means you look like the missing wanderers. Nevertheless, you can turn off the imitation-status and take the original look of your own character you created.

    There is a PVE and PVP-System. The PVE-System goes smoothly and there are different kind of enemies. The PVP-System is good and is a great feature.

    The negative point is that there is no V-Sync. It isn't reasonable why this element isn't implemented yet.
    Furthermore, there is no setup for a controller. You can only use the keyboard and mouse.

    The gacha-system seems to be inspired by Genshin-Impact. I tested it and right now i can say it is quite fair. However, the payment method accepts only credit card. I was wondering why they don't accept Paypal, since it is an often used payment method. If you are ready to use a credit card, i recommend you to get a prepaid-credit card that you can get at a filling station/ petrol station. Going to a bank and request a credit card isn't necessary.

    I hope the upcoming updates will solve these problems.

    1. The character sharing and importing was a fantastic experience during the original OBT but it is now broken miserably…
    2. I see many people complaining about the time gate, it’s definitely worse than the original OBT. (During the Chinese release, I didn’t face any lootbox time gate until entering the third major region. The level limitation was there since day one starting from around lv20/30 ish I couldn’t remember)
    3. Many parts aren’t localized well (EN). The lab reports are not aligned well and look confusing. Missing translations on some map/ui textures. Missing voice lines through the story.

    Both Perfect World and Tencent are notorious for leeching off money. From the design details, you can tell this game is mediocre compared to Genshin Impact in all aspects. In addition to the confusing currency tokens/points and colourful maze-like UI menus, they exploit the item rarity colour scheme too. Many golden looking legendary items are just trash fragments. And you will need stacks of them to make them useful. There are just countless different fragments you need to pay attention to.

    The action combat system is quite unique and works well in a multiplayer game. Kudos to that.    … Expand

    Tower of Fantasy is, at this point, an anomaly among its peers. Beyond its perfectly average music, Hotta Studio keeps steering the game in such bizarre directions that it’s hard to tell whether it’s intentional design or the result of consulting a Magic 8 Ball. And even with the Warp Server, it’s still unmistakably Tower of Fantasy: a janky, charming, and fighting an uphill battle to reinvent itself after years of decline.

    So: Do I recommend it? If you like games with anime looks, and you feel like the popular MMOs today are just too clunky for your taste, Tower of Fantasy looks to be a solid option. It’s kind of rough around the edges, but more than makes up for that with the fun factor and potential for long term playability. Perhaps not for everyone, but it is a surprisingly good entry into the F2P MMO space, especially among those with a mobile version.
