Can't even save my progress after a few ingame days.
Have to start a brand new campaign, lose all my progress. Another 1-2 launches, another bricked campaign without the ability to save.
I'd like to recommend having a look at the software Notepad, which demonstrates how the save functionality should work, reliably.

Item stats? Who needs them. Is a beanie better than a bear hat? No way of finding out.
Crafting, do you have all the mats? You still can't craft. Why? Zero Info.
Oh you had 3 stacks of 8/10 of metal wires, and you need one stack of 10/10, but you can't combine them. No crafting for you!
Crafting, 100+ items in a list, non searchable. Can't filter out items you can't craft either.
Aiming rectangle provided when in melee, not when equipping bow. WHY?

It's like playing a bodged game where someone shovelled in a bunch of assets into the unreal engine.
Basic playability and tutorial, or a functional UI has no dev attention, but apparently a DILDO SPEAR has.

Unable to even handle the concept of game settings.
You go into settings, turn NUDITY OFF, so you wouldn't see dangling badly modelled ♥♥♥♥♥.
Apply. Reopen settings, still OFF.
You join a server, the thing turns back on.
How hard it is to SAVE SETTINGS?

I payed full price for this flaming barrel of a "videogame", back in 2018. 3 years of development, and honestly feels like it's just as broken as it was back than. You have to be sadistic to play this game.

You can't even quit this game without using the task manager.

Good idea and good enough depth, but it's riddled with bugs.
It's very hard to play a town-management game, when there's no proper statistics available.
How much food you're making? There's a stat for that, but it's wrong.
How many people are homeless? Stat, but it's a negative number. How do I have -24 homeless people?!
People don't seek out the best available accommodation, so if you build a new building and you want to get the benefits of it, you have to destroy the previous ones.
Can't actively participate to fight raids against your gate.
Visuals are bleak, not enough contrast on key details.
Wait until this game gets it's basic bugs sorted.

Great idea, extremely horrible execution.
AI lacks a proper code to manage tasks for each minion.

Do you need to deploy a single brick to the other side of the map?
Great, all of your minions will pick up one stone, carry it all the way to the other side of the map.
Then do the surprised pikachu face, when they find that it's already have been built.
If you played any management games, this should make you immediately realise that this game, is not properly playable at it's core.

Autosave checkpoint system doesn't work correctly and will get you into situations where you have to load back to a save point hours ago. There are 3 autosave points, and if you have to load into the last one, it will also overwrite another one. So if you die twice (maybe you got into a position that is impossible to get out of due to constraints) then all three of your autosaves will point to the exact same moment, all impossible to deal with. Who wants to re-do 4-5 hours of content?

Ohh and floating models. Crashes. Isn't this game like a year old? How do you not hotfix these issues? You know, maybe the reason Steam is better than Epic Game Store, is that here we can actually tell the devs to fix their game.

The story is super simple, the writing is at best high-school level.
There's no music in this game that would be note worthy.
Npcs get random voice lines - I've seen cases where 3 npcs stand next to each other, all saying the same 10 second voice line, on repeat, for 3+ minutes.
