First let me start with the positive. This game is fun, after watching kage848 play for years I decided to buy the game when it had a sale. Its not a game your content to just watch a play-through and enjoy as a 3rd party. You'll want to join in yourself. The developer is competent, good listener, although I question his key-bind ideas. He has changed many things based on community feedback. If you want game play, see Kage848s stuff. But basically in a similar lane to 7 days to die, but with more focus on crafting, and building, rather than combat. And the negative.. The controls are annoying to learn, only certain things and be changed and the ones that can't are the most offensive to use. The settings are minimalist as best, and bare-bones at worst. You'll need 3rd party software to tell if your settings are too much, since this game has no frame rate counter, no V-ram estimate, or recommendation for your card/V-ram. There are no settings for lighting, shadows, or water. All of which are known to cause performance issues on low-end hardware. Finally, the only way to interact with certain objects is to first press 'E' then do whatever it was you wanted with the object. This sounds nit-picky, but when you have 5 forges your're trying to load, or unload, or water your trying to move around, this gets old fast. Green Hell is a good example of a good interaction system that allows the player to interact without needing the extra button press. Overall a good game, that needs a little bit of polish to bring out the shine. It runs well on low end hardware...depending on your definition, my rx580 needed a drop across the board to get good performance.

I like this game but to be honest, it gets very boring after a while. Pros : * Beautiful environment * It's optimized * Big map * Good building system with a lot of different building pieces. Cons : * The lack of content * No co-op * It's way too grindy * Very janky combat system

Sept. 2024

ok so the game is good youcan craft fight and do all the other normal stuff. all the buildings seem very generic so every place looks pretty much the same. the ai enemies are quick to seek you out. ive not played for a couple of month now as i got bored. would be good if you could build a full working community improve the looks and designs of enemy possibly add some fresh stuff into game

Great survival game. Very challenging, Best part of this game though is how responsive the developer is to the community. Haven't seen that since Banished.
