I've played a few of these types games now. In browser RPG's that give a nice feeling of progression if ya put a bit of effort in. CS and Aerias short lived SLS to name two. I was kinda hesitant to jump in again, but I'm glad I did. This is fun. :)
Cloudstone so far covers the basics of gear progression, and hyper -advancement, ie uncapped, stats I saw and appreciated in the games I listed. I have to say this game has a unique charm to it though with the friends instance summon and the number of ways to do things without wandering a huge world map. I'm loving the idea of seasons and leagues for the PvP/Guild events. Gives a good feel of a 'Fresh start'. As I saw the gauntlet items are being addressed I really don't have other thoughts on how to improve it till I see more of the game.
Keep up the good work! Good luck to the devs for making this one into an even better game!
