I finished this game after about 45 hours on survival mode and really had a blast since beginning to mid-game. Then everything slowed down extremely for me, since I spent more time on going back and forth between my basis or farming required materials than on progress.

However this may be because I did not feel very comfortable in the deep ocean darkness, which is crucial part of the game. Somehow, I did not expect this at all.

Nevertheless, expect hours and hours of farming, crafting, exploring and tense moments in this game.
