On my first run, I crouched when I saw the first enemy, and got immediately one-tapped. 10/10

The game is very hardware demanding for the graphics level, my poor GTX 1080 Ti sometimes doesn't deliver 60 FPS. Still, the game is fun and somewhat hard. I hope it gets some updates in the future, or a sequel.

I think this game is a must-have if you like slower-pacing games and have a Steam Deck or other handheld. It runs at 60 FPS in performance mode with occasional dips to 40 on Steam Deck.

The graphics are not that impressive on a large screen, although I won't say the game looks bad. Quite the opposite, it's distinct with its use of cel shading, it's cute, charming, and chill. Everything in this game is about being chill and doing what you like, how you like it, and when you'd like to. There is no point in rushing the game. When you arrive at a new location/region, you're guided to learn the magic skills (each region has unique ones) and complete the first dungeon of the region. Before you do that, the game locks you out from straying too far, and sometimes the way it does that is kinda cute.

I have completed about 80% of the dungeons so far, and I can say that they are nice. There is a good variety to them, and most of them have hidden loot which is satisfying to find. Some of the dungeons have puzzles that made me feel dumb, and I had to watch YouTube guides on how to find a couple of chests, but overall, the game isn't too difficult, and it isn't trying to be. There is literally an in-game option that disables dying in combat.

The combat itself is adequate. You can use a bunch of skills during the fights, which compensates for the lack of combat moves and weapon types. Chaining light attacks sometimes doesn't work as smoothly as I'd hope for, but it's not a deal breaker.

The music is very nice. The scenery is awesome. Sometimes you get somewhere high and can watch the whole region below you, and it feels great. There are definitely some memorable characters as well. The writing and story are nice.

I'm pretty sure I will miss this game once I complete its story, the free add-on included in the game, and the New Game + mode.

I mostly play solo or co-op against AI, and I find the game pretty good. Sometimes even normal AI can steamroll me or spam my defences with 5-6 airstrikes in a row. Other than that, the game is fun. I just wish that salvaging wrecks was a default ability for all engineer units, for all factions and battlegroups. There are clearly balance issues, StuG III D is OP, as well as Stuart spam strat. But overall, it's alright, and the devs seem to be fixing the balance periodically.

If you buy this, be careful not to find yourself thinking "I'm going to finish this little thing and go to sleep" for the 12th time that night at 4 am.
Lots of exploring, lots of collecting, lots of sightseeing and LOTS of building and optimizing the production. The devs are among the best I've ever seen, sharing cool videos about upcoming updates and changes and they do listen to the community.
If you dream about a nice looking 3D version of Factorio with less fighting and more chill gameplay - I think there isn't anything better.
Co-op is present, but the experience isn't ideal - yet.
Very excited for the upcoming updates, and strongly recommend the game.

It's incredible. The controls are slightly different from GTA V/Online, which surprized me, but in a couple of hours I started to enjoy the game greatly.
No, it doesn't run 1080p 60 FPS on my GTX 980 on mid-high settings. No, it is not "perfect" in terms of dialogues, subtitles and logic of some events. Yes, it's still amazing.
I would rate it like 92/100. I'm loving it.

It's been a while since I played GTA: Online. As a matter of habit, I used my Insurgent Custom to drive through the LS. It's funny to watch some kiddo trying to bust that thing using their Deluxo, run out of rockets, die to my RPG, say "lol" and quit the session. Ol' good times.
P.S. If you are able to play with 3 friends, you can really enjoy the game and have something interesting to do. At least for the first 100-200 hours.

10 "Severs are to busy at the moment, please try again later" out of 10

A very nice game with quite an unusual control system which makes you think a lot. It doesn't seem to be easy for me, though interesting. Lots of buildings, random encounters and characters.
It has some bugs, but it's the early access, so I hope they will be fixed soon.

+ nice graphics
+ interesting and quite unusual gameplay
+ lots of buildings and other stuff
+ the game requires thinking

- the tutorial is not quite sufficient
- several bugs
- no flexibility for new players (it may be too hard for them at first) and lack of information about where to get smth at first

Still, I like the game and I hope it will be developed nicely in future
