They make the game nearly impossible to really succeed with by reducing the durability of tools and weapons to a ridiculously low level. Even the most expensive and rare weapons and armor wear out almost immediately. Completely unreasonable, no matter how much money you spend. DO NOT spend one penny on this game. EDIT: RESPONSE IS A LIE. YOU CAN NOT "COMBINE" DAMAGED WEAPONS OR ARMOR. IT IS RIDICULOUS HOW QUICKLY EQUIPMENT AND WEAPONS BREAK.
