its just kind of... mediocre. It doesn't really have any unique charm. Just kind of like "this is a survival game. We do survival things here."

Also the world limit was continuously frustrating. I get the technical limitations but, running into a barbed wire fence that ran infinitely into the ocean constantly was a very limiting feeling experience.

Trees not getting destroyed after chopping felt weird.
Animal AI felt weird and robotic.
UI and inventory management felt weird.
Traveling the world felt weird.

Everything just kinda felt weird and off, like it was 50% of what it should be in every aspect of the game. It also took way too long to start up, I think.

Based on the trailer it seems like there's some really cool game play concepts at play here- but they take WAY too long to show them to you in execution. So I'll never really know if that was good or not.

I don't know. Overall just a meh experience.

It is rare I cannot come up with at least something good to say but even the good terrain (not animals) is just Unreal 5 terrain tools... So it probably took less time to learn to create the whole map for the developer than it took me to learn how to craft in their game. The whole experience was pathetic really I have a few THOUSAND hours on Ark, Conan, No man Sky and others so I can play a survival but I always start a new game on easy to get a feel for it... hours and hours later I finally built 4 foundations with walls and a chest. That was not because of engaging game play it was the tedium of gathering 11 fibers to make 1 string that need 50 of those to make one thing and u get 1 fiber per plant and most plants cannot be harvested. That includes the lack of harvestable plants to EAT (u might find singular ones but then u need 5 or more to feed yourself) but that's not all you need BOTH protein and vegetables (this would be cool if it were avail and things actually lasted). Basically another "Challenge through repitation", eventually the choice becomes that of Reload, keep losing things, Start a new game, or eventually admit you just wasted your money and quit. An important Note to add is I had failed to see how long this game actually has been in "Early access" and the point of completion is reprehensible and I actually PLAY Star Citizen for heaven's sake. DO NOT Waste YOUR MONEY.
