Tl;dr: Good enough that I bought it after playing a pirated copy, but it is held back by some truly bizarre design decisions that feel even more frustrating with how obviously the devs possess both skill and motivation. First, the positives. The game runs brilliantly. I have not yet really pushed things, but my rather modest mining setup runs without a single hiccup on my ancient 4670K. The NPCs and their fetch quests make the game world feel more friendly and alive, which is a pleasant departure from the hostile worlds of Factorio and Satisfactory. I absolutely love the aesthetic. I also love how everything runs on water, and that the devs give you a magic water pumping pipe rather than requiring you to power the water pump. I like how the vehicles are so easy to get back upright after flipping them. I like how you can combine gems into larger ones. And of course, I love the built-in mod support. For example, aside from a set of basic starting tools, everything you will use has to be bought from shops with money you earn by crafting commodity items like daggers, axes, and jewelry. That itself is fine, but for some reason, the devs think that it is a good idea to have to manually carry your money from shop to shop to buy things which, since you do not have any kind of internal inventory, means either making multiple trips back and forth to carry the money to the shop, bring back each purchase one at a time, and then retrieving your money, or using the in-game pallets which have finite space and take your pace from "a bit slow" to "old man with his shoes tied together." This is partly solved once you get one of the trucks, but even that requires you to cheese things by dropping things from above the truck bed in order to get your various items of cargo to phase into each other. As others have mentioned, digging mines is a chore, and requires you to either use the shovel to relocate one basketball-sized piece of soil at a time or use things like explosives or the pickaxe which, while significantly faster, erase the material from existence, thus denying you the resources contained within the soil. Then, if you want the floor of your larbouriously dug mining pit to have flat terrain, you have to use a rake that loves to target the side of terrain rather than the top, creating a Minecraft-esque block rather than the smooth floor you were trying to get and, of course, fixing this requires digging out the block and trying again. Another example of the design decisions that make the game less fun to play are the machines themselves. Having mining machines be damaged by unfiltered water when you can run a literal truck off water you grabbed from a pond is kind of confusing even in-universe, and having to use five filters to prevent this is kind of obnoxius. What is very obnoxius is that the filters have rather short lifespans, and the death of a single one stops all water flow, meaning that all of your machines and conveyors instantly stop. While the filters and other machines do not explode or anything when they reach zero health/integrity, they do require you to use either a single-use wrench or a 5(?) use bag of wrenches to fix them, and these are both items that you have to buy and, like everything else, you have to carry and use them in your hand because the game has no inventory system. Even dropping things is annoying. When you drop something, rather than going where you are looking, it gets dropped from a point to the right, probably to recreate dropping something from where your right hand would be if you held your arm out in front of you. While that is kind of annoying by itself, so much so that the devs give you a little indicator to tell you where a dropped item will land, you also cannot drop things if the item you are holding is touching anything, meaning that tall items like the shovel cannot be dropped while standing on and facing an incline, requiring you to turn around or jump to put the thing down. The game has a lot of potential. Frankly, the attention to detail that can be found in little things like how dropping a hot ingot into water causes a puff of steam, hissing sound effects, and cools the ingot makes the game's many annoyances that much worse, because it tells me that the devs are not lazy and that instead the various issues I have with the game are actually the intended experience.
Listen, this is a great game—I’ve put in over 500 hours, so I know what I’m talking about. However, there are a few things that feel incomplete. It’s like the developer finished about 85% of the game, everyone bought it, and then the base game was never truly completed. There are several incomplete features, bugs and just sloppy features. For example: - Task requests for version 1.5 feel half-baked. You Can’t even make a “.5”. - Why are there no ramps that vehicles can use without getting stuck? - Why do vehicles constantly get stuck on the “hot spots” for ore resources? - Why isn’t there a better map system that clearly shows whose task you completed, instead of making you guess? - Harvester should have a toggle to empty, I don't need to hold e for 10 minutes. - Frame rate near end game is horrible... With 500 hours I've optimized everything and it still sucks. - Carrots get stuck in funnels and without funnels creating a jam. - Putting seeds in the hydro copper... Complete after thought. Can't scale at all dropping bags of seed in a small compartment. These are just a few examples, but overall, it feels like the developer should finish the base game before focusing on paid maps which feels like a money grab seeing that the base game has several incomplete features and many bugs.
