I've been playing in a weekly EZD6 campaign for 6 months and found the game to be solid, balanced, and particularly well-suited for one-shots, a sure sign of rigorous play testing. The lack of a leveling system hasn't held us back or been disappointing.
The rule book is not without flaws. Different terms are used for the same thing, combat is barely touched upon, rules for magic are scattered and because magic uses different rules than non-magical combat, it is not intuitive. The PDF lacks bookmarks. A supplemental book of frequently asked questions was created, currently up to version 6, to help fill in the gaps, but still the same questions get asked again and again on Discord. The rule book needs a second edition with better organization that more clearly explains how to play so that players don't need supplementary material and online discussion to figure it out.
