This game has it's own meta. If you care a lot about sandbox games and want a challenging environment to create things and push limits, this is the game for you. For me I have spent over 1,500 hours and i don't regret it. Incase that isn't enough there is a passoinate modding community that can extend your expirience. As a survival game it's terrible. There barely is a goal and creativity is limited, atleast challenges can be created and are actually fun. Some glitches can be game braking but there are a few that have become part of the game so have fun learning about them. Don't buy this game if you don't intend to do anything I have said!

Its a shame to see a game with so much potential just get left behind. no other game like it out there and they just left us in the dust after huge chapter 2 promises. still a great time killer regardless.
