My initial reason for starting it in the first place: The guest and support appearances of other actors (Hou MingHao, Ding YuXi, Charles Lin). Otherwise I probably didn't think of starting it at all. Despite that I was still invested in the story. The actual main cast was as convincing and made me care for them and their goals as well.
The drama has its own beauty and grace. A different kind of grace, especially the main romance in the beginning. As the main plot continues with the villain, the romance lost some of its artful beauty - you could say it was replaced by the game-like storytelling. Those of you who are also gamers maybe know what I'm talking about. Your typical RPG-storyline: a group of heroes is built - growing as the story continues - to fight the big evil, that is terrorizing humanity. You have your different places where the main group travels to, to solve smaller side-stories, that are still important for the main plot. And everything results in the big fight at the end. Thankfully in the last episodes, the story rediscovers the beauty and gracefullness of its initial love story as well.
And at this point I can't quite differentiate between my subjective and objective opinion about the last events. Because they added another - imo - unnecessary side villain to the story. I also think many characters had a questionable fate at the end. At some point I can understand the storyteller's intentions for the later purpose - at the same time I don't like it at all, because the way it happened felt unreasonable.
What I really love about this drama were its many different couples. You get so many awesome and unique characters and so many great couples you can root on. This feels somewhat refreshing, since you don't have to concentrate on only one but a whole bunch. It definitely never gets dull.
The music played a big, big deal in this one. It was powerful and strong, connected you to the current scenes while you got swept away by its emotions.
Visual effects supported the fighting skills greatly and made them look stunning without going overboard.
