So, zenith is really interesting.
Right now it is what I would consider barebones in a mmo.
- sidequests are mostly kill x or collect y
- main story quests are usually go to x and scout

I am mostly annoyed about the user interface. I keep triggering spells left and right while climbing, going through my inventory or clicking through menus. I also have seen that they had a kickstarter a couple of years back? Seems like they actually do have a sort of road map. Would love if this road map would be more visible for the non-backers.
Cooking is a lot of fun and I can hope that at some point the good old crafting for weapons and armor will come to this game as well. I hope it has similar mechanics to make stuff more engaging.
Also, I haven't seen and resemblance of player economy so far. No player to player selling, no auction houses etc. On the other side, there is not much to sell right now.

I really hope they add content in form of qol features (that server list needs serious cleaning up!) And additional vr centric gameplay.
I heard they are adding new side missions, but who the fuck cares about those right now?
