AFK Journey

This game has very enjoyable things about it, from exploring, team building, strategy and not to mention, amazing Art. Youd be hard pressed to find any other gacha with just as beautiful design. However, this all hides the rotten core of this game that further seeps into the cracks as time goes on. The people who dump buckets of money on this game grow with strength as the game continues to reward those players. The F2P players continue to weaken as rewards continue to be chipped away. The PVP element of this game becomes further unsustainable as more and more powercreep seeps in. Most importantly, this game feels like Ad-ware with how many pop ups shoot into your face all the time. You will spend months grinding this game just to learn that those who paid bypassed weeks of that time. Moreso than other gachas. There is much more to consider but please take my word for it as someone whos played since release. Its beautiful i know, but save your money and most importantly, save your time.

Upcoming update adds more pay to win features in a very heavy (and crazy expensive) p2w game. Nearly every game mode earns rewards from leaderboards, you need increasingly more copies of heroes to rank well, they keep adding more ways for the highest spenders to get more advantage. Getting extra copies of heroes beyond S+ was changed to give a very hefty PvP bonus a while ago, and in 1.7 they are expanding that further with more investment items. The game has no way for free players (or even low to mid players) to compete in PvP at all anymore, and this also extends to doing worse in other game modes as well. I was a low-mid spender for about a year and a half. With their new changes I won’t be spending anymore. They are determined to lose all player retention and keep trying to suck money from the whales and krakens. Characters and art is good, story is okay, having a customizable character is nice, game itself is copy-paste best teams to rank on leaderboards and very little “fun” is involved. PvP would offer strategy but that is being further and further removed for spending more money instead. There are much better gacha games that reward all players, keep them playing, and have more fun, don’t waste your time with this one, it’s a trap.

Like the title says. I used to be really far in this game since starting preorder day then the developers decided to make a new version for it and completely wiped my data just like a million+ other people. This game is a scam and so are the developers. I do not normally write reviews but I gladly will for this game so nobody plays it and if they do then you have been warned about game data deletion at some point for all of your work. Get a life developers and learn to stop erasing people’s data and hard work.
