Yes, there is a lot of bugs since it is early developement, but I so far enjoy this game. Needs to definitely be polished and added more things in, but I like it!

Apart from my helldiver not being able to read from time to time, and constant crashing and sending the reports to the devs and them not helping me with it, the game is awesome! (WE STILL HAVEN'T CAPTURED MALEVELON CREEK, MY HELLDIVER HAS SEVERE PTSD, PLEASE HELP US, WE NEED MORE STURDIER MECHS AND AGENT ORANGE TO CONQUER IT!)

Edit : Because of me keep crashing I made this review as Not recommended, cuz it really gets on my nerves!!!!!!!!! I keep crashing constantly while normally having enough FPS...

This game is so addictive. Time flies when Im playing this. I literally cannot stop playing, please help...


On a real note, I kinda think the game is a little repetitive, but here I am doing my fourth run, being absolute giga chad in prison. literally the "Legend". Also Im kinda dissapointed I cannot play as other characters like Bob the Panther, YET...

So I've been wanting to write a review for a very long time now. I love this game SO MUCH.
I haven't been playing many games at all in the recent months but when I saw this game came out and many people on youtube started playing it I got so intrigued I had to buy it because it looked just so good. And it is! I did not even know that this game was going to come out. I am kind of a veteran of The Forest and enjoyed that game as well.

Now I have a lot of criticism regarding this game since it's in early access. Below will be some spoilers about guns and some of the game mechanic but not the story.
I will talk about the negative things I have witnessed while playing this game and then I will talk about the positives.

The negatives :

Mainly I dislike that food is very easy to come by, usually your inventory becomes full very quickly when talking about food and energy drinks also. I wanted a little bit of a challenge so I tried custom game and put on the hardest the survival damage and consumable effects to hard. On normal difficulty there is also A TON, and I mean A TON of animals... They literally swarm you and all you have to do is just run swinging your melee and you will kill one deer eventually. Or a squirrel. So I put animal count to low.

After having those settings on I was kinda dissapointed. First the animals is still plentyful especially around the ponds and small river-lakes, they usually spawn there and even if you won't respawn there after save they always come there, and there is A LOT of them. In my opinion there is just still too many animals when you put animal count to low. I just want to have a hard time getting any food and not have drying racks and inventory / shelves full of dried meat which is exactly what I had on normal (a TON of meat) and low animal count (still a LOT of meat) and considering Virginia brings you dead rabbits often + rabbits and squirrels are easy to kill WHILE also turtles that cannot even run, they give you a lot of meat as well I think making the animal count smaller or having deers drop less meat is definitely a huge goal for the Devs.

Another thing I dislike are berries, which are very nice addition to the game, but it is very time-consumingly painful to eat them ONE BY ONE. Please add option to eat them like a handful AKA like 5 at once or something. It is very annoying popping them one by one even in real life you wouldn't eat them singularly. I also want to cook the mushrooms!

Also there is HUGE amount of meds spawns and you become very full on meds very soon. You could add other types of medication like bandages, because I am kinda sick of eating so many pill bottles!

Skipping the food finally I can talk about the canibals. They are reasonably hard to fight with on normal difficulty and are a challenge! I love that. I played against the enemies on normal difficulty all the time and they hit very hard on normal difficulty. When you get better weapons and mainly when you get a lot of armor you become invincible still, but I liked how hard they were. I bet on hard difficulty they are even better to fight.

Nice addition would be to interact with canibals more, for example befriend them or deal with them. They kinda just hate you all the time meybe not attack you straight away but still there is only hate towards the player.

About the firearms. I like them VERY much. I love how I can decimate basically every enemy just by modern firepower. But there are negatives to this addition.
For a start. Why cannot I check, how much ammo is in my guns? Please add ammo check animation, and show on HUD or at least a chamber or the magazine if it has ammo. You could just look at the magazine to see if you have ammo or in the chamber if it is loaded... Even more dissapointing is that you literally put flashlight or LASER in the place of gunsights!! No sane person would do that... You obviously block the sights and cannot aim at all. Lasers always belong on the side or below the guns, NEVER on top. Person with basic gun knowledge, even normal person that knows nothing about firearms wouldn't do this... I would really remodel that so it's not so scuffed. Currently the crossbow has NO sights... and shotgun while yes, it is a shotgun and doesn't really need to aim has also no rearsights, so it's hard to aim. The best guns to aim with is the pistol (without the rail for "laser on top" and flashlight) and also the revolver. I also like the reloading animations and modding of the weapons in the inventory but please, add some scope for crossbow and red dot sights or scopes for the other weapons. Even the revolver could have red dot sight and laser below it while you cannot put it there currently. Also I automatically thought that there is a stock attachment for the shotgun since it is without the stock at it's basic configuration, but there sadly isn't. It could be added so it has smaller recoil or aims better or something. Shooting a shotgun without stock IRL is hard. Also modern bow could have some sights, normal bows have already some sights that you can aim with. The handcrafted bow is hard to aim with but you can possibly hit something. I haven't even bothered with the slingshot. It sounds like a cool weapon but does very little damage to canibals (IRL you could potentially die if shot with a pebble at high speeds with a slingshot) and is very hard to aim with since it also has NO means of sighting... So it's very hard to hunt with it. Also the shotgun could have shells in the rail shotgun. That would be nice addition. The guns are very accurate thought I gotta say. People also wanted more guns which would be nice as well.

Now to Kelvin and Virginia. I love them. I would really like to have more interaction options with them, like for example hugging them or giving them food etc. Would really be a nice addition.

The bugs that I dislike: The weapon bug with the laser.
The positives :

I really like the game itself. Kelvin, Virginia and the recently added Hang gliders are very nice way to move around. The seasons and nature is awesome! Above I wrote a lot of criticism but I love the game so much. I just want it to only improve.

This game was great! On the bright side, the story is VERY good, but you'll have to find that out on your own, there is also replayability, but not infinite of course and the soundtracks are complete bangers. What I did not like so much about the game was the graphics is pretty basic, but everything still looks pretty nice, but it could be improved, and sometimes characters clip their hands or other parts into something, and personally I was mad I couldn't drive the car at all, unless left-right minigame, and there wasn't a difference in the cars that you drove, it was always same colour and same everything. Except those few things that I didn't like, the game is super nice. Revolt!

It was super pain and laggy and scuffed but I'LL TAKE IT ;)

Very chill game. Although at first I was very confused. You just bloom dem flowers! Also some music would be nice. 8.5/10 Would bloom again.

Just a good little game, nothing serious, good for some laid back shooter.

Very good WW1 game without depicting too much violence, if you like something like This war of mine and WW1, then this game is for you.

Simply unique and great game, 10/10
