I'm able to strap a pipe bomb underneath a vertibird and assassinate the man who wants me to pay my fair share of "taxes".

I wish I could give this game a neutral/"meh" recommendation. While Myth of Empires does some things really well, other times it has features that are so lackluster or just boring. Let me also preface this by saying I LOVE survival games, so I've played my fair share of this genre. I've only played this game for ~20 hours and have only played on official PVE as a solo. So with that in mind, my opinion is very much that of a solo player playing on the gather/xp multipliers which the devs intended. In terms of progression, I've been able to hit level 28, which I believe the cap is 50 or so (I think)? So I've been able to experience features such as building a large base, taming soldiers, horses, etc. So let me explain what the game does right first.

+ The amount of content, for an early access title, is HUGE. There are tons of building pieces, crafting stations, weapons, armor, etc. to unlock. To give a good example of this, I think there are 4 or so tiers of building pieces in the game (Wood, Clay, Stone, Metal) To put this into perspective, Ark: Survival Evolved released with 2 tiers.
+ The map is also HUGE. I've only explored maybe a 1/5th of the map in my whole 20 hours. There are also different biomes to encounter as well. The biomes can range from swamp, mountains, plains, rain forest, etc.
+ To add onto the map, there are a good amount of AI camps which you can go and try and kill or capture them. There are some friendly camps as well which allow you to peacefully recruit your "warriors" by giving them certain items (Ex. 18 bandages, 22 raw meat, coarse leather armor).
+ The skill system is pretty runescape-esque and diverse. You can level up woodcutting, physique, riding, etc. Each of the categories comes with their own perks you can unlock as you level up. If you love grinding, then you'll love this.
+ The guild system is pretty interesting and in depth as well. You can level up your guild by spending coins and activity points (You get these points just by playing) on buffs that apply to everyone in your guild. There are also certain guild buildings that can be unlocked and used by your guild. Trade posts, watch towers, territory marker, etc.
+ Game performance is pretty decent. My rig isn't the greatest either and I can run it just fine on low-medium settings at 60 FPS.

Now that the good features in this game have been outlined, let's get into the bad of the game... and there are a lot of them.

- Myth of Empires (On vanilla rates) is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ grindy for a solo player. Honestly, this is more a me problem than anything. This game was clearly meant to play in a large group. The guild system is HEAVILY favored towards large groups (duh). Those guild buffs can be super helpful too, if you don't have them you'll be playing at a disadvantage. So if you're thinking about playing this game solo, don't.
- There isn't much PVE content in the game. Most of your time will be collecting resources to craft new items and buildings. This is just so BORING... there is a quest system to help alleviate that boredom, but even that is boring as ♥♥♥♥. You'll get quests to craft XYZ item or go collect XYZ resource. I haven't seen any main quests deviate from that method. There are some exceptions but even then they're boring.
- The movement feels so slow in this game, I understand it's trying to be realistic but come on... I can't even tell the difference between my character sprinting or walking. If you want to do any sort of traveling, a horse is pretty much required. Even then, the horse still feels slow. Now with breeding and training you can upgrade your horse, but holy ♥♥♥♥ the early game feels so boring.
- The translation in this game is very... meh. I understand the development team is Chinese. But can't you hire a translator who's competent in translating Chinese to English? It feels like they pulled some random Joe off the street who spoke English, told him to translate, and called it good. Sometimes I get the general idea of what a certain item or feature is supposed to do, other times i'm at a loss for words. Some items just aren't translated at all either, the item or item description is still in Mandarin Chinese.
- Building on my last point, this game is so confusing at times. The MOST important parts in the game are not explained whatsoever. Which I think for a survival game is fine! Trial and error can be super fun and rewarding when you finally figure out how something should work. But in this game, it's just frustrating. You want to know how to refresh your decay timer on your flag claim so your buildings don't decay? Nope, not explained! Well how do I make "donations" to the Imperial court, what about selling my items? Nope, ♥♥♥♥ you not explaining! The amount of times I've seen people ask questions in in-game chat is astronomical (Most of which remained unanswered). This makes it so much worse with a language barrier and poor translation between the devs and players of this game.
- The combat in this game is so bad, lol. MoE's combat system reminds me of a "For Honor" type system where you can attack and block at certain angles (up, right, left, down). But it feels so much worse, It feels so unresponsive at times. I cannot imagine how PvP is right now, and I don't even wanna know with how bad combat is right now.
- This game is somewhat buggy too. Items and buildings not working correctly to the music cutting out and not playing at all making it dead silent. For an early access game released a couple days ago, that's to be expected honestly. More are bound to pop up so don't be surprised.

I could go on but I think you get the general grasp of how this game is in its current state. There is so much to talk about that it would be impossibly long to cover everything. The foundation is definitely there, which I cannot say the same about other survival early access titles out there. I also haven't been able to explore everything there is to in this game, such as the government system. That would take waaay too long, and I honestly don't want to invest more time in this game until they polish it more. If you're desperate to play a Survival MMO game with the boys or just bored at of your mind, then I'd lightly recommend it. Otherwise, I would just wait a year,two, or even three before buying it. And who knows, maybe they'll just abandon the game and leave it half-finished.

TL;DR. Game has a lot of content, huge map to explore, and lots of features to learn and enjoy. But it feels too half-baked to warrant any sort recommendation. Wait a year, two, or even three before buying it.

I mean if you want to grind hours on end farming materials, taming dinos, building a base, etc. and to lose it in nearly a fraction of the time you got it at then be my guest.

I've already signed my money off as a loss, so I can sit back and see what comes of this with zero expectations.
