My Hero Ultra Rumble Review (Nehku)

Let's talk about the pros and cons of what I've noticed as a PvE player.
The fact that this game as a PvE mode is phenomenal, I can play a game I enjoy without the anxiety of playing against other players, I can have my friends join with me for a few relaxing games, which is great. The characters are fun to play, it's the world of MHA which is fantastic, even if there is only one map, making it easily memorizable as to where everything is. There is a horrible glitch that if you only play with 1 other friend instead of 2, the party will disband after every game and you have to uninvite/reinvite them again every time. I am hoping this bug is fixed soon. Luckily, you can still level your battle pass/season pass through PvE as well, so you can at least enjoy some of the rewards.
The cons of the PvE mode are pretty blatant right out of the gate - you cannot progress on ANY achievements or unlocking things through them. No badges, no nothing. I understand that this might be for those that want to cheat and just grind out PvE games to rank further in PvP, but it's heavily unfair to those that just want to enjoy the PvE content.
The roll system is a total nightmare. You don't get "pity" rolls as you would find in Genshin where even if you roll individual rolls, you can eventually work your way up to a 2+ star, you can only seem to get the promised loot like this doing 10 rolls at once. Which is hard, considering it costs 100 tickets to do so. This is also extremely difficult to achieve when doing PvE mode. Every new roll banner, you LOSE your exchange roll points, which the first week I found this out, I was 180/200 to buying a character, imagine my agony in thinking I could keep these points to purchase a character on the banner I was working on or the next one. This reset is detrimental because it's lost currency and it feels like there is no reason in trying to obtain these points, unless you spend actual money for an overflow of them to buy what you want. Which, let's be honest, the prices for this game's pay-to-win are ridiculous for a gacha game.
I am heavily neutral about this game, I would neither recommend it nor not recommend it (even if steam is forcing me to choose this option), it depends on what you're looking for. It might be good from a PvP stance, I wouldn't know, but as a PvE player, it's there but lacking. I would like to be able to work on achievements and keep my points, as it's frustrating not feeling like I can progress anywhere, which makes the game stale after a while. I am sure the Dev team doesn't particularly care about the PvE section, and it shows, but I hope eventually they change a few things around to make this game as great as I am sure it could be. It has potential, it can be fun when actually playing, but the surrounding aspects listed above make it difficult to want to stick around.
EDIT: It's come to the point where it's pay to win. You spend all hard earned tickets and get items for characters you don't own and the rest are easy picks from other banners which are converted into essentially useless currency while rolling on special banners. Pity points are still taken away, making this game feel even more like a grind and less of a fun game to enjoy. I've been watching a lot of the community continue to ask for items/ranking/issues to be fixed that simply are not being met/addressed by the devs and instead they continue to present us with things we don't necessarily care about. Fortnite has the same style and at least you can get the characters and emotes you want for a fraction of the cost, along with more than just one map and playstyle.
