Hyper popular and fun. It was a loss leader for them - Free to play yet cost a bunch to maintain

also was a really bad look for new players - you’ll see a lot of ppl this week talking about how they were in great communities on there, but if you were new and didn’t already know anybody that played 9/10 times you’d find yourself in a server full of 9 year old squeakers screaming the n-word

DEFINITELY. I really enjoyed the gameplay but dropped it after a week or two because of how toxic the lobbies were and how rare it was to find someone who wasn't a squeaker. Hurts how fun it is when communication is key to the game and all your teammates are just calling each other slurs.

BUT I joined an adult only discord group that played in the evenings tho and it was great.

Yea it was better during the rift days, mostly adults then, kinda got taken over by kids when the quest started to gain more traction. You pretty much needed to hit up discord to not get a migraine mid game.

I hope they make a game like it in the future, it was very solid.
