My wife and I started playing this right as Alpha 5 was released.
When my computer broke this was all I missed.

This game has come so far and still is advancing by leaps and bounds while so many other games I watched my wife try have bombed out. The developing team is doing some amazing stuff with this and I am happy to get to be in ere helping test and play it.

It may have started out looking like a horror version of Minecraft (which my children and I play together as their desired family game night) but now there are rolling hills, serene valleys (that will break your legs if yo aren't paying attention and fall in), and the towns/buildings all look absoultely amazing.
Combat has become much more than a simple hack and slash too with effects such as bleeding, stuns, and burning; creatable traps and pitfalls; and so mch more you can easily find a way to play that suits you best.

As wonderful as the game is, I do have to say I dislike that the zeds can find you even if you spent the last week of gametime underground not moving or crafting or doing Anything at all But if you are careful and plan accordingly this too can be worked around. Also, for those who think to just jump right in... my character has learned how to craft 4 different guns and a full set of iron armor but still can't manage a forge to make the metal or the only range weapon I use a crossbow... Finding the recipes in the random loot Can sometimes be a headache but is worth it when you get what you wanted.
