I feel like there are some extremely unfair reviews on here. The game is in early access and I would still give it a 10/10. playing it on non-permadeath is the way to go unless your doing a challenge run. Where the term rouge like comes in is when you go to dungeons either on quests or just delving. I highly recommend you sleep before heading out on a quests because this creates a save state. the dungeons are randomly generated so if you die on the quest the first time upon returning it will be different. The survival mechanics and build variety makes the characters feel yours. I am running the game on a potato that struggles with running task manager of all things. does the laptop struggle... yes but given that the in-game time only moves when you interact with it this negates this issue. If you have even a semi competent computer you will have no issues. I saw some comments saying that the game has lazy animations and art but.... by god just look at the screenshots. I have never really been into pixel art games but this is just beautiful. This combined with the lore and the OpenWorld aspect I can say that I feel a level of immersion I didn't think possible with a game like this. Its almost like running a single player D&D session. This is definitely a game I will be dumping a disgusting amount of hours in. To explain how much I love this game. I am actually considering buying the caravan reskin dlc just to support the development. This game is actually quite possibly one of the best I have ever played.
