interesting in the first few hours... but then... yawn.

Vielleicht gibt's ja irgendwann mal ein brauchbares Tutorial, das die Spielmechaniken besser erklärt.

Grafik schön, aber die Mechaniken überzeugen mich einfach nicht.
Alles respawned nach Restart: Schätze, Gegner, selbst Endgegner.
Es gibt kaum Rezepte für Waffen und Rüstungen, kaum Abwechslung.
Die Liste der Spieler-Vorschläge ist sehr lang... wenn die abgearbeitet ist, könnte das Spiel gut werden.
Irgendwie fühlt es sich auch mehr nach einem Jump&Run an... Prince of Persia-like.

After about 10 hours: great game so far. Combat is smooth. But too few items. Needs more content. Come back in a year.

used to run under Parallels/Wine. Doesn't anymore. Sorry.

At some (early) point you begin to realize that this game is just another one in a line of hundreds (overexaggerated) that are similar...
Boring.

Early access. Too many bugs. Stay away. Come back in a year.

FYI: Playable on macos under Whisky on a MacBook Pro M2 Pro with decent fps on normal and high quality. Occasional crashes tho.

The game itself is very disappointing. Surely can you build a city, but if you ever dared to take a look at Soviet Republic: Workers and Resources, you get the feeling that CS2 is just... not good enough to be THE city builder everyone was/is waiting for. It's the many details that are just done sloppy. Read the forums if you want details.

ok so far

This game isn't for me.

Positive:
- the map is huge, the landscape is beautiful, you are fully immersed
- sound design is very good
- game mechanics are very good
- building is very good

Negative:
- ammo is scarce, you have to explore the island to find enough ammo - but I don't want to do that. I prefer staying in my base and just controlling the near surroundings. This is only possible with handcrafted arrows. May be realistic, but it's not fun for me. I'd rather like to not have to worry about ammo for better weapons.
- armor is quickly destroyed. I don't like it that my armor is so quickly destroyed. It doesn't justify the crafting efforts.
- these two things lead to a new tactic in caves: hide beneath some rock and try to pierce enemies to death with a spear, using a glitch that they can't hit you. I don't like that tactic but it's the only way to survive the caves (at least for my playstyle).
- the other tactic is to just run through all the enemies until I reach the end of a cave.
- ...which leads to the feeling that this game is merely a jump and run game, trying to avoid getting hit.
- maybe I am missing mid- to late-game equipment that won't get destroyed when being hit and good weapons that will take care of most enemies in a single hit. But from what I've read so far, this isn't the case.

Sorry - this game is not for me.
