The game's open PVP and territory control mechanics carry a high risk of competitive toxicity and social obligation. While 'stranger chat' is absent, the social dynamics of an MMORPG can still lead to social comparison and identity self-worth issues. The game's design encourages infinite play and escalating commitment, which can make it hard to disengage. Content includes a high level of violence.
