I started playing about 3 weeks ago thanks to Korny's gushing, and I've been having a blast. Im definitely not playing top-tier content yet (T4 Survival is a terrifying prospect right now) but I feel it's well within my reach - all I need is to gather some more resources and get a bit lucky with the RNG. The existence of a trade system helps a lot too, as you can get those items the RNG refuses to drop for you.

Edit: worth mentioning that the only things I've paid for have been convenience items. I havent bought any weapons or characters with real money and I don't feel penalised for it at all. I have bought some Platinum (the premium currency) to support the devs, but I've not felt the need to spend much of it yet.
