Early Access Review
Alright I wanted to wait till I finished all 5 bosses and build myself a decently size village before I put a review.
With over 80 hours I feel comfortable to put a review on my experience and view on the game.

Pro's :


+ Open World: Massive map with different areas (known as biomes) it will take a few 100 hours just to explore whole map.
+ Crafting: Different tiers of gear and depth to it (with new tiers to come and expand on depth)
+ Building: Can build almost anything you want.
+ Survival: Doesn't have "tedious" survival to die if you don't eat and rather buffs from eating.
+ Lore/Game-play: Lore looks amazing so far and unique boss fights.
+ Social Aspect: You and your friends can build a village together.
+ Graphics: Very unique art style, impressive low-poly aesthetic and some of the most amazing weather effects I've seen in most recent games.
+ Early Access: For an early access game it already has over 80+ hours of content.

Cons :


- Open World : Not that many different biomes and will interact same enemies and area's
- Crafting : Has basic crafting mechanics
- Building : Building takes a while to get use to the snapping mechanic, so might be off putting for some.
- Survival : Might not be for the hardcore survival people due to not being able to die from not eating.
- Lore/Game-play : No voice acting and minimum lore at the moment, Combat is very basic and boss fights are too easy.
- Social Aspect : Only capped at 10 players currently, but no real PVP aspect to raid like vikings.
- Graphics : It's a pixelated art style and will put some players off from the game. (trust me game looks amazing tho)
- Early Access : Will have to wait for a lot of content to be added and fix most of above issues.

Overall :
Right now this game is already worth the $20 Price tag and I have full confidence it won't be abandoned. I 100% recommend giving this game a try and you won't be disappointed. Don't forget Odin is always watching ;)

PS: I will be updating this review every time I revisit the game after major content updates.

Alright I've updated some points, to clear it a bit more up :)

@Syltis I agree with what you say, due to saying it's difficult to get use to, but once you're use to it it's much easier to build. (Minecraft would be an example of less wanky snap mechanic.

With regards to the graphics I spoke to a few friends and they don't want to play the game because of the graphics style. @JackTheSnack

But I will adjust some sentencing as you made some valid points, so I will expand on those to clear up what I mean :)

A solid review but some of these points are misleading.

Saying snapping is wanky is a bit of a stretch. Name any other game where it is any better? Snapping with this kind of complexity will always be a bit wanky, but it scales with skille and knowledge.

"It's a pixelated art style and will put players off from not playing this game."

Sounds like some dumbass players. The graphics are a great choice and it also help keep the game running easily which in turn helps a lot of players on weaker rigs.

I agree mostly, not with the graphics though. I think the graphics is what makes the game so unique. It feels very nostalgic and similar to the older legendary RPGs.

Thanks for the insight, I might not get the game yet but I'll definitely revisit your review as each update comes out to see when I might get it.
