What's kind of funny with you saying this Bobs is that in the trailer for 4.2, the jade stoa trial actually has what looks like the enemy bullets from Nier Automata, which is kind of a bullet hell action game. It might not just be figurative, but literal! And of course, solo Lakshimi missile command.

I get what you are saying though. There's more in common with action and bullet hell games than traditional MMOs here.
