Raft

имба сюжетка

Fun the first day, first couple of hours then its all the same, once the novelty wears off it feels like you are playing an alpha test. Strange how successful it is and the devs haven't thought of coming back to polish the experience at the very least, the survival elements suck, you have to eat and drink every 5 minutes, at a certain point you'll feel like you are juggling 10 things at the same time which you kinda are, you constantly have to protect the raft from the shark, grow farm food, constantly protect the farm from seagulls, expand the raft, grow trees, cook and make drinks, make glasses and bowls for them, go fishing, steer the raft, smelt resources and fuel the smelters, also need to fuel the cooking stations, use the bowls and glasses to collect the food and now have to restock the cooking station with the necessary ingredients again, cut the trees, collect the farm fruits/veggies, during all this you have to eat and drink then also restock the water purifiers, rinse and repeat in a circle with no time to rest, its exhausting, unless you have a full team of players with each their individual role you are gonna have a hard time, I played with a friend and it was still exhausting. Apart from how demanding the micro managing is the actual difficulty of the game is non existent with only 1 exception, all land enemies you can just side step or jump and hit them without getting hurt, the big bird is only annoying because its a bullet sponge with the same loot as 2 seagulls, the shark can easily be killed with no danger simply by striking its nose as it strikes you (this is the most iconic enemy thats supposed to keep you on the raft btw), the pufferfish can only be killed properly with bows underwater which doesnt make sense, the Rhinoshark boss can be annoying if you have no flippers or oxygen bottle (which have terrible durability and are costly to make me and my friend lost ours exploring that lame ass location and had none when we reached the boss, if we wanted more we would have to leave the location farm islands for seaweed and come back which would have probably taken 2-4 hours or more), the only "hard" fight was a semi secret Bear Boss which is unfair to fight without cheesing it, its faster than you, you can't stagger it and it will kill you in few hits so me and my friend just took potshots at it sitting right before his deaggro range. General lack of enemy and critter variety Most locations suck and are terribly boring, the most interesting one was the snow area and even that had less content than a minecraft update). Following the main story is really quick, especially towards the middle/end, we finished the story and didn't even need to build any of the end game tech/buildings that take titanium, mostly because the main story locations are extremely unrewarding and going from one to another won't take you through other islands where you get some more of the needed resources, the only reason I have 50 hours is because I extended the game a lot by expanding the raft and building even tho I didn't really have the need to. The story is pretty mediocre and childish but that's not a big deal, if only the rest was good, non interesting characters and the final boss was a cartoonishly evil general with 0 combat skills that fell off a balcony and got his feet stuck in xmas lights, zzzzz One addition that would be welcome is to be able to revive your mates on the spot, the idea of carrying them to the bed to revive is cool except when you are doing boss fights, I don't like finishing a boss fight with my mate dead and watching me (well in this case you can't even spectate), so usually if I cant revive him I just choose to die to the boss but in this game dying means you lose a TON of stuff in your inventory and all your gear gets degraded All in all, its mid with friends, horrible if solo, but if you wanna try it, since theres not many other games a la Waterworld, buy it on a good sale.
