[Denial94]

I read some negative review about abandoning this game? Buy it or add to ignore list?

It's worth watching but wait and see.

Will it finish off all the "coming soon" skills?

Basically, it's death. Why? It's actually a great game! However, the developers are very slow and promise way too much. Large updates only very rarely. On the part of the developers little communication and work on the side on other games that are not ready. Many bugs that exist for months are ignored by the developer. Any communication is ignored.

Nope. Not even close to “dead”.
See you soon for the Seamless World update :)
Merry Christmas.

In legitimate honesty?
More of less, yes.

BUT, doesn't mean you cna't enjoy it, and encourage your friends to get it to play with you, or even make friends.

When you have to rely on a possible, not yet to delivered, update...to bring players back, thats a big problem.

The truth is the game is practically dead, even the steamdb player tracking stats have been terribly low. Still a fun game however

Again, not dead.

There’s an entire room full of developers working tirelessly on the game.

I’m afraid you are not an authority on the status of the game and your insistence that it is dead is an insult to them.

The game is very much being developed and far from “dead”.

I wouldn't call the game dead but the current release is definitely dead.

People seem to extrapolate the term 'dead' with multiple different meanings: game population, development, fulfilment in enjoyment etc.

To be perfectly honest, the game is a bit rough around the edges and could do with some restructuring of 3D models/assets in dungeons and the poison island but overall the game is fantastic. I rarely ever give a ♥♥♥♥ about games but this one honestly shocked me with how in-depth it is when at initial glance it looks like an asset flip. Genuinely, worth a buy. First hour you'll be on the fence until you start progressing and you'll start enjoying yourself progressively more.

It seems to be designed more for 6 year olds and that is ok. Yet not recomended if you are after a challenge, it´s weeker than Portia.

SPOILERS...
You can enter homes, yet then you discover their simply exact clones.
The difficulty settings seem to be very wrong, with normal way too easy.
The AI, we there is no AI. They simply stand uttering nonsense even when spoken to.
The landscape is divoid of any interest, except use of the same tree and stone props.
Like an MMO of 20 years ago in that respect.
I have yet to be included in a story.
Etc etc

Yes, it needs much more than a bandade, it needs a devs that actually play it.
As much as they have tried to copy a kind of Zelda vibe, it falls so short it´s embarrasing.

The game is not dead. If crafting/adventure games are your thing I would strongly consider getting the game, and considering its on sale for 15 USD now is a great time to snag it. That being said the game is far from a finished product.
