I've been revisiting this game, over and over, and over, and over. I've owned it since day one.

Everytime I come back, I think "Oh cool, they added this, and that, maybe it'll finally be fun." It is for the first hour, then all the same flaws that were there since day one reappear.

It's terribly balanced. It's a grinding game, but there's absolutely no reward whatsoever.

You're probably going to throw your mouse or keyboard in anger after a few hours, because you'll probably die for some stupid reason (bionic wolves, invisible wall, bad loot table, etc.) and have to re-grind your way back to gathering all the same stuff again.

Unless that's your thing, you probably should stay away.

If you want a "realistic survival experience", go for Don't Starve w/ Reign of Giants. Don't be fooled by the cartoonish style, its mechanics are a lot more realistic than this, and unlike LoD, it's also an actual game.
