So, I kinda like these type of games. Blacksmithing is somehow funny, and a bit boring at once.
This game is... if it would be an early access, it would be very early. There are so many things which are weird.
Example? Sure!
You start the game with the tutorial.
Grab an copper ingot and make a sword. So you put it in the oven and you heat it. The tutorial says you should press the bellow for heat increase or click the water bucket for heat decrease... the heat increases, but when you click the bucket it says "Bucket empty"... ehm okay.
Anyways, you grab the ingot and put it on the anvil. A bit clicking and its down. After that put it in the oil, then water, then mount everything and then sharp it.
After you finished this little tutorial and you take your first order you go to your mine and grab some ore to make it into an ingot. but you cannot see how hot the ore is, so you heat it up, and it overheats, especially copper, in overheats like always. so the quality decreases. Okay, how ever, next step, oven -> anvil -> into the oil... but what? The oil is gone, you have to upgrade that oil barrel from level 0 to 1 first, it was only there for the tutorial. Ok, than into water to cool it off. (If you fill the barrel with water to the max, it can cool like only 2 sword, then the barrel is empty... ). You build the sword together, then you want to sharpen it. But again. The grindstone was there only for the tutorial, you have to build and upgrade it. How stupid is that? A blacksmith without a grindstone? You need to sharp the sword, else you get less money that it cost you making it... Stupid

Than you can carry only 1 ore. So you have to walk. A LOT. When you have the money ready you can build up an lift that can be used with the minecart so you don't need to walk that much. On an ingame note is written that the ores you mine will be stored automatically in the cart, which is not working. Than it is written that the cart/lift can take up to 5 ores in level 1. But it can't. It can take 3 ores max....

There is much walking and much grinding. For example. The handle and stuff for an shortsword costs you about 25 gold. when you finish it with 79% quality (which is not that easy since the melting is not working properly) you get 42 gold back. You start with 1000gold. Building the mine, which is mandatory since it is the only source of ores for you, costs 500 gold. Building the grindstone costs 350. So acutally you start with 150 gold. Which you will invest mainly into buying handles, crossguards and so on. So hopefully you don't mind grinding a lot.

Then I walked around and I met someone who looked like a thief, and when I wanted to speak with him he said "My actions are not implemented yet". Funny, but as far as I see here, that game is not early access....
And all NPCs are whistling if they see you, that is so annoying...

Overall, this game needs a lot of work. Maybe take it off, release again as early access, and than listen to players and provide a lot of work into it...
In this state I cannot recommend to buy it.

This game neeed patches. A lot of patches or one really really big one.
