It's an incredibly fast-paced game that pulls off not just an online action game well, but also does it using a minimalist UI and control scheme. There isn't really much in the way of needing to press several keys at the same time, and it rewards reflexes and timing highly. I've said this several times, but it reminds me in many ways of Zone of the Enders, because of both the speed and the fluidity of combat. To me for example, Arisha is Jehuty with a chest.
That minimalist approach also shines in how skills are handled-- unlike a lot of other "action" online RPGs, you're not necessarily spamming skill key after skill key, but looking for what attack best fits for how the enemy is currently moving and attacking. You have to actually pay attention to normal attacks, and skills are often for utility.
