The movement is kind bobbing (I disabled that but there is still some) - it kind of gives me bit of a headache.
I find dialogs too long and annoying.
I have not played much but I am confused about play and am heavily depenent on internet
Looks like once I get used to mechanics and the movement I am going to like it but we will see
On paper, this game can seem like a dream come true especially for many of the colony sim/hybrid genre crowd who were disappointed by the offerings in the 2010s. This game appears to be an RPG, a sandbox, and a colony sim all rolled into one. Wowzers.
The problem is the game gives you very few tools to actually manage what you need to do. The first "serious" quest can seem daunting: the NPC delivers his welcome spiel then goes "so craft an axe, oh and btw build a whole ass house as well" and you're like dude what. Turns out buildings are prefabs in this game, which can be disappointing. Still, I got over that, but there was more to come.
After that the storyline seems to devolve into a bunch of fetchquests, which is my main issue. Nowhere does it advise you what to build next. Worse, you realize you need to take care of food and water for YOURSELF, but what about for your settlement? If you just randomly recruit people like new players will likely do ("cool, I can recruit!") they'll run face first into the realization that a bunch of randos does not a healthy settlement make. You have to worry about EVERY SINGLE facet of it, from resource gathering, crafting, cooking, farming, etc. The game mentions NONE of this. Sure, it tells you what a structure IS. JFC,,, an idiot could figure that out. What players need to know is HOW said structure fits into a settlement. Oh and did I mention a lot of this stuff is tech-level gated?
If you treat it like an RTS to fail repeatedly before finding success, sure go ahead. The problem is many may come into this thinking it's an RPG. Having to figure out what can be unlocked first combined with what you need to get a viable settlement running is VERY different from exploring Skyrim.
So MAKE SURE YOU KNOW what kind of game this is before you buy it. It's mainly about getting your settlement running. If you're looking for an RPG or sandbox, no, this isn't for you. And look up guides unless you enjoy restarting repeatedly.
Game is great, at the beginning there is slow pace but once 10 buildings are allowed and some villagers are employed you can spend much more time on quests and exploring.
There are two major things, though, that annoy me:
a) constant stucking at each tree or foundation
b) connecting to epic upon opening (just for me to play it singleplayer)
hence lower score
