Early Access Review
Everything you ever wanted in a survival game. First game where you're materials grind can be outsourced to your minions. Almost Everything. I'm playing content all the time! And there's a ton of content.

Valheim pay attention.

Early Access Review
Its a great idea...bit wonky (but I expected that from early access). AI is on mobs is ok. Hard as heck on anything above easy to start with. Highly recommend raids off until you have base established...then turn it on because its a good source of scrap and foods from the loot drops.
Things this game MUST HAVE to get traction (Note to Devs)
* A que for crafting. As it stands everything you craft is done One-at-a-time. So to cook 20 pieces of fish, it means standing there for 20 mins and feeding the fish into the oven, waiting until its done, then pulling it and putting a new piece on. Same for making ANYTHING from bullets to Ingots.
* Options for going out at night. I understand there is a warm coat that allows for this, but in 126 hours I have never found one. If you leave the radius of the campfire, your health withers away as if you were on the North Slope (Which I have been IRL). Its unrealistic and silly that the cold debuff is so drastic. And the night vision scope is useless if you're taking damage all night. THIS NEEDS TO BE A CHECK BOX or SLIDER OPTION. Or a wearable craftable. Make a polar bear island and I will use their blood in a soup Haha!
* Option for Daytime length!!!! The harder raids mean you have to be on the water and at the higher enemy islands as soon as the sun is coming up. The trip to the islands is about 1/4 of the day there, and 1/4 of the day back...leaving little time to eliminate 1/3 of the forces. I have not been able to finish the upper echelon boss fights in one run (I die cause I'm hurrying to not freeze to death). My workaround is to make a base in the water near the farming spot with spare bullets and a bed.
If you want to take a day to build and decorate your base, its gonna take several days and lots of food cause the food burns are equal to time passage...which is real quick. In game if I take a day to go get food, I return with enuf food for about 3 days. Farms are a good option...fish traps and bird traps are the best.
So to summarize...
I like it somewhat (I'm playing it on the new version and its so much better) but it still needs some tweaking:
1) A crafting cue so I can cook and smelt and farm all at once.
2) A day length modifier.
3)A craftable warm jacket or suit to fend off the cold. (That is not a Rare drop, if that is the case)

Absolutlely the best game I've played in over 30 years. (Much better than Zork) If you haven't played this, you are missing out on an epic singleplayer experience.
