It's perhaps the best game I've ever played. The closest video game experience to actually playing D&D at a table with friends. Brilliant writing, phenomenal characters, start to finish a masterpiece. Game of the Decade.

It's so good, it's ridiculous how fun it is to just tool around building hamlets and villages, even with the extremely limited content in Early Access launch. This is gonna be one of the best games of the decade after another 2-3 years of work.

It's both the best Dark Souls game ever made, and one of the best open world games ever made.

Yes, it's another open world survival crafting game. BUT, this one avoids the annoying nonsense that most of them inevitably fall into. Repairing is easy, food is purely a buff, crafting is fun and building a base is both simple and detailed. It's a very well done combination of Valheim and Dark Souls, essentially. A lot of fun to play with friends!

It's absolutely bonkers Kojima nonsense, and that rules. It's also shockingly fun, and the core idea of feeling connected to others in an asynchronous way works quite well.

It's a lot of fun running around a library blasting monsters with random weapons for half an hour at a time!

The gameplay gets really repetitive after just a few hours. Not really worth it.

An extremely unique and interesting 4X game, very reminiscent of Civilization but with plenty of differences. I really like the weird fantasy setting, and how there's a driving narrative.

This game avoids most of the annoying aspects of other open-world survival crafting games, and creates something that feels fun and engaging. It has a solid sense of progression and somewhat more direction than other games of its style. Lots of fun to play with friends, but still entertaining solo. Excellent choice for your open-world survival crafting needs!

A very sweet and enjoyable JRPG that reminds me of old-school SNES games but with a more modern, open-minded sensibility.
