Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
To play online co-op with friends in exploring mode, you have to "rent" a server for $16.3 for per month which is bs because you already paid for the DLC/full game.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Basically a game similar to Minecraft, but easier to craft and cuter graphics in my opinion.

To entice you to keep playing, the game has a quest system and a level system.

Servers and matchmaking
Players who bring up Servers and matchmaking mostly praise it.
The reason I don't recommend this game even I loved it so much back then is that you cannot host a server to play with your friends for free anymore.
