Been playing for roughly 1 month and so far it is a fairly good pre-renewal server. GM is always friendly and helpful. Also replies very quickly after any issues arise. Steps have been implemented to ensure a fair and balanced gameplay loop for all jobs, so ninja, gunslinger and taekwon line aren't left in the dust for PvP. Loads of quality of life features to make that pre-renewal grind just a little less tedious. 7 months into its life and the economy is healthy and not broken.
