As someone else said, this game being a positive or negative experience is based on how much you're willing to sink into it, money wise, not time wise.

40 hours in I have hit THE wall. You get past the first exciting hours, where the game throws everything in your face, and now you're left to log in for 10 minutes, do daily objectives, and log out until they refresh. Progress becomes painfully slow, with enemy difficulty jumping randomly.

The micro-transaction prices are insane. Only buy them if you quickly need a resource and CBA to wait 24 hours until you're able to obtain it via daily objectives, otherwise I would not recommend spending money on this game like I have. Granted only about $30, but that's $30 too much.

If the game kept on going, and didn't artificially create barriers via enemy difficulty spiking, forcing you to wait and do daily objectives, or spend money, i'd give this game a thumbs up... but it's too predatory in its monetization for me to give it that.
