The Building Sucks!
Why does it have to be so overcomplicated?! First time I had to google on how to build basic things. Not explained well at all.

Meanwhile I never played the original game and learned you can hold a button to swap to template building in like 5-seconds

Show me this magical button on the controller that somehow gets me into building mode to drop down a basic wall template like in the first installment.

One of the very first quest prompts it gives you is to press B to open the building guide...literally tells you. This is not even that complex compared to some games. Things snap neatly from what I've seen so far. Only thing that is worrying me is how quickly enemies can smash your stuff.

Edit: I realized as I typed that I saw an option for disabling structure damage. I suppose that works, but I would actually prefer having to defend my home and it not just act like a cheat safe spot. Just...you know...not explode when a mutant sneezes at it.

Except that is false. Building menu is digi pad up, not B. B is for cancelling and dropping stuff. And there never was such a prompt for me anyway.

What about it? It's a giant X prompt, not able to miss it. That puts you into template mode for other basic buildings, but not walls. You seemingly cannot place ghost templates like we used to.

The book is pretty clear to me. Switching to template mode allows you to place ghost templates of different structures, while the other mode explains how to build freely, which they did so that you can build anything you want.

Building a wall is as simple as holding a log and placing them on top of or beside each other.

There is no ghost template building for walls. Like, that's the whole point of planning out walls for your base. This system here uses too many logs and doesn't allow pre-planning. At least the removal is easy in return.

That's the way how to survive, we have to learn and study, and practice doing it. I need to google it too, same as other games.

This is one of the most easy building systems in this genre imo.
