Early Access Review
I love survival horror games. DayZ currently at the top of my list. The Forest is currently an alpha but already have pretty much everytning you need to have a pretty sweet game. The biggest beef I have with this game is that it will not let you play or learn before you are killed. Sure, there are ways to survive (basically just hold block) but thats stupid. The natives attack you almost directly, even if you try to hide and 6-7 chops with the axe don't seem to scare them of... The game do not feel hard... just unjust and kinda stupid. I want to be left alone for a while at least to get set up and/or understand the game... I played it 10-20 times and have lived for several days, have been caught and made it back... this game can be a really great game but as I see it now, the biggest problem is not with technical issues, its the game mode itself... Last time I played I had a gun with unlimited ammo, at least that gave me peace to build... now that gun dont seem to work, it just gives of a cloud I cant see though...

Idea is good, game had all the makings of a great survival horror game but I need more. More crafting, more time to build and a fighting chance against the cannibals. And for the love of good, get rid of those revolving doors! Why would I want a shed that anyone can walk into and kill me... Still... I like it.
