Really debating on buying this game or not

[SK]

I am not expecting a Factorio type game at all here, but the Logistics aspect is whats making me want to buy, but there are some thing that aren't clear like,
How much time will this game take from me? will i actually get to do anything? is it worth buying in general? do the developers know what they're doing?

small nitpick: I heard that scraping got censored making players say scrooping instead, this type of censor-fail often happens on non-westerner games, making me wary of if their priorities are in the right place, I know its a lot from nothing but im speaking from experience

This game will take as much time as you let it. Its a persistent war, so if you want to contribute more time you can, if you don't, don't. Expectations change if you join a regiment, but that's not mandatory.

If you like logistics this game has a complex and evolving supply chain, and since everything is created from scratch, weapons, medical supplies, construction material, ammo, vehicles, and things tend to get used quite quickly on the front lines you wont ever find a time when something isn't needed.

The censorship isn't overbearing and the community isn't toxic in a way that makes severe moderation a must, so it depends on how much of an issue you decide to make it.

Tank battles can last for hours on a front, and tanks can take multiple hits and be repaired and returned to the fight. Or sometimes they blow up. Or sometimes you die trying to repair it and it returns to the fight. So a couple of minutes to hours or days.

Naval engagements from my experience are shorter. At least big fleet battles. Skirmishes may vary.

But you're missing the real point I think. If you're in a tank battle and the back and forth has been going on for a while, you can tell everyone you're leaving and that's that. Or you can stay and fight it out for as long as there is a battle active on that front. The choice is yours.

My friend and I both got this game. He plays once a week. I play daily. I spend my time making armored vehicles and storing them away, which can take up to 1 hour to make one solo (faster in a regiment dedicated to logistics). When he is online, we take out those vehicles from storage and fight on the front for a couple of hours. then he is off for a week while I replenish the vehicles we lost in combat. He doesn't do any logistics, I do logistics about 50 percent of my time in game. I fight with my regiment for another 40 percent and fight with my friend the other 10 percent.

The key here is my friend, who plays 3-5 hours a week does zero logistics, me who plays 10-15 hours a week does logistics half the time because I choose to do so. The choice is yours at the end of the day.
