So. Many. Flaws.

Post by Echoplex »

I really want to like this game. Truly I do, the concept and the ideas are wonderful, when I read the "about" and watched the trailer on this website I almost came with sheer excitement and wonder, thinking that this was the game for me.
but
there's virtually no thorough tutorials on the internet (the video tutorials on youtube are unbearable to watch, the tutorial on this website is thin and doesn't explain much, or not enough), the interface and gameplay just fucking suck in general, I spent about two full days walking around wondering what the fucking fuck to do, bored out of my mind just ripping bark off of trees, having near death experiences with ants, roaming the boring, oh so boring earth completely alone hoping I could have some fun soon until I eventually had a few skills and was on my way more or less, then was permakilled by a motherfucking boar that I never saw coming.
FUCK
THAT

I'll keep checking up on this game maybe every few months or so to see if it's improved any, but for the meanwhile, it's a flawed, irritating, monotonous and genuinely boring project with a LOT of potential.

ITT: I am dumb and don't want to learn anything by myself and also I don't like permadeath. So I am going to try a game that is based around permadeath, survival and the ability to discover things on my own...

Oh well, before this turns into a shitstorm I will lock it (not that I wouldn't have the urge to let some more shit rain down on OP).
