No, it's a sandbox... you provide your own quests/motivation/story etc.

The game has a general motivation that you can take in or not (find how to escape the exiles lands) and gives hints and clues as to how you'd do that... then some NPCs tells you things and some others point you in some directions...

All of it is very vague and totally optional... the main game is building, defending what you've built from purges (or other players, if pvp) and finding how to progress/develop new techs as you level up.

EDIT: And exploring the map of course, which is very large and has insteresting stuff to find... Also, last but not least, killing stuff... of course :)

The closest thing to a quest in the game are the journey steps, which award xp for doing certain actions, killing bosses, crafting difficult things etc. Honestly, it's more like a guide system that gives you hints as to what you should/could do next, rather than quests that will send you out of your way to kill/collect things.

Personaly, i had a blast discovering how the crafting system works in it's full capacity. The way you can combine items is rather interesting and kept me occupied for way more hours than i would have liked it to. :p

yes it does. The quest of not getting killed by your neigbors and killing them in the process.

Well, there is a main objective if you choose to pursue it. You have to figure out what needs to be done to escape the Exiled Lands. I believe once the quest is complete your character dies permanently though.

There is a complete main quest to follow, without any clue at start (you have to explore), with an end. and lore elements...But no, any quest except that.

There is dungeons and bosses to kill to get items so you can escape the exile lands. But it's very much about making your own goals.
There is a "journey" you can follow and many smaller tasks you can do or not do, up to you.

He gets deleted and you have to make a new one. Oh well, why would he come back, when he just managed to escape?

to kill players and more bosses

Your player gets deleted if they escape? that sounds lame AF, seriously?

No quests. And only partly a sandbox. The sandbox part is that you can settle anywhere on the map. But all the more important resources from mid to high end are in specific biomes and drop from specific mobs like in a themepark MMO. World design is bad for a sandbox game imo. Skills are also very limited in that everyone will go for similar builds that just work for combat atm.

In current state PVE is quite shallow and if you are on your own quite the grind, even if you change server settings (which can be done ingame in singleplayer). The purge (where mobs attack your base) is aimed at co op.

Combat needs a lot of work still too. Lot of trouble with hitboxes and nonsensical attack animations for certain weapons. As if it is just made to look nice.
