    There’s a lot to be seen in this game, as well as a lot of rewards to loot from dungeons and bosses, and I’m still continuing the adventure in hopes of bigger and better things. As it stands now, I think Trove is a solid game for kids, as well as up and coming MMO players. It’s a game that is a wonderful upgrade from the Minecraft world, but pushes players a bit further with gaming concepts and design that most of us have experienced for a good portion of our gaming lives. I’m sure that it will keep growing as a game and hopefully, audience willing, garnish new add-ons and design that push it into a more rewarding experience that will legitimize it as a go-to MMORPG for a wider audience.

    Great in short bursts, maybe an hour, as you can have fun and make a little progress, complete a challenge, and see your experience progress. Maybe two at a push to run some Shadow Tower, or work on the Club World. But those meaty, satisfying online experiences need a heavyweight MMO to deliver them and, for all its colourful charm, Trove just isn’t it.

    If you’re looking for depth, Trove will leave you frustrated. The combat is simple, the progression is slow and the quests are all the same. However, if you want a certain kind of fun, you can absolutely find it here. Players looking to wile away the hours fishing, crafting, building and murdering will never want for things to do. The PVP is just as accessible as the rest of the content if you have the patience, and you never have to spend a dime if you want everything the game has to offer.

    Played in long sessions, Trove can quickly grow mind-numbingly dull and repetitive, and its performance issues can sometimes be a pain. But played in short sessions, it's a decently fun way to pass the time, either by building structures, battling bad guys, or experimenting with new classes.

    The core problem Trove suffers from is that Minecraft doesn’t work as an MMO. Minecraft is an open world survival game that inspires its players to create huge structures and towns. It was never the gameplay that got people hooked, it was the stories about what they created. Trove limits this ability severely, leaving players with a shallow and characterless MMO that quickly becomes boring after just a few hours. Even if players were to invest money into the game, Trove still has nothing of substance to offer except cosmetics and progress fasteners. Stay away from this greedy cash cow, MMO players deserve better.

    Seeing the negative reviews on this game is ridiculous. This game is absolutely amazing. It's a nice blend of minecraft and world of warcraft.Seeing the negative reviews on this game is ridiculous. This game is absolutely amazing. It's a nice blend of minecraft and world of warcraft.

    I spent my first few days fumbling around wondering how I could get cool items, but I soon discovered the marketplace. The marketplace is in the bottom of the options menu on the left so it is easy to miss it or think it is unimportant. However, if anyone tells you this game is "pay to win," they may have missed the marketplace button. This game is not "pay to win," "pay to succeed," or "pay to play." Personally I've done quite well on the marketplace and this allows you to purchase the high ticket items you'll see the top players using.

    You do not lose anything by downloading this free game however there are two problems that I wish I could change. #1 The chat. The open chat on this game has filters for profanity but no filter for spam or scams. There needs to be a feature where players can vote to ban a player from the chat. #2 Server lag. Honestly, everyone should expect this when playing any MMO. There simply is just too much that can happen at once. Not only are there AI enemies, shops, and allies but everyone has access at all times to bombs. If you've ever set off a large amount of tnt in minecraft just think about everyone in your server being able to set off their own tnt simultaneously.

    Any other complaints about this game are null and void. Ignore them and try this game for free today.    … Expand

    I do not see why the servers have to be down for more than 3 hours. This is getting kind of ridiculous.
