This game is simply breathtaking. The only possible downside is if they do not continue to expand on its core elements and call it a finished product in its current condition. I feel as a gamer over time we become numb to the amazing advancements in the gaming industry. What was PONG yesterday is unacceptable by today's standards. I simply cannot get over how much this widened my eyes in a childlike amazement as other games used to in my childhood. Like all things it has its boundaries and areas for improvement, though above all it was a delightful fresh take on exploration that takes your emotions for a ride.

Even now I'm still piddling with creating my own biome, transplanting fish and breeding them to release near the creep-vine forests. it really gives a feel that you are observing and researching an alien planet. Every-time i think Ive done everything something new pops out. This game is well worth $24 and with more content to come, i would have no issue paying for DLC expansion.

Things the game needs:
1. Minor bug fixes for glitches (Main one is falling through the map)
2. More creativity in some biomes that feel out of place compared to the rest.
3. Needs at least Co-Op, perhaps up to 4 player LAN.
4. HARPOON (nuff said)

Things the game excels at:
1. Fantastic Immersion
2. Interesting crafting with depth and simplicity at the same time.
3. Great story (Maybe a real alien or survivor or 2 though guys?)
4. Creative creatures and shivering scary larger mobs

If you like exploration/survival games at all, this one is an instant classic. In my opinion it is easy to overlook the flaws and room for improvement because for what is there is so well done. But don't take my word or anyone's, try it yourself. Id highly recommend staying away from spoilers too as it will break some of the immersion if you already know whats going on.
