I've reviewed Illuvium once before, over a year ago. At the time, the game was in a closed invite-only "beta", which was really more like an alpha. The game was a flashy but unsubstantial tech demo that seemed to be a thoughtless attempt to cash in on the "auto chess" hype, two years past the genre's prime. Their biggest selling point was the promised "interoperability" between the company's 3 games, but at the time, only one and a half were playable.

We're approaching year 4 of Illuvium, and all 3 of the games are now playable in an open beta state. I'd typically give them a bit of leeway with that label, but due to their extreme monetization, I feel that leniency is unwarranted.

A budget nearing $60 million, a team of nearly 200 employees, and a whole lot of disappointed fans; this isn't the Illuvium we were promised, but it's the one we got.
