I checked it out and it's pretty cool. I wouldn't just sweep it away in a generalization. Cryptic Studios said it wasn't Pay2Win. Being able to play an action MMORPG with a char who hails from Baldur's Gate = win

I played for a few hours and I didn't see any D&D elements whatsoever

It felt like a generic hack and slash

That sounds contradictory.

Edit:
The Foundry-type stuff was always a staple of the Neverwinter franchise and was always hit or miss based on the skill of the designers. It sounds like more of that.

The lack of survivability sounds like a plus to me. See "D&D element" above.

The cash shop sounds like a problem only if you make it so.
