Great story, and now a challenging re-playable endgame which makes your accumulation of parts and skill really grow in to true mastery. Highly recommend. Even at full price.

Put 160 hours doing everything, got my character and base ready for new content and was patiently waiting for something new to do and then the devs/designers/top-brass decide they're going to wipe EVERYTHING. Don't buy this yet. Its a fun game but I suggest you wait until they 1.0 release.

Starts you out on a boat right from the get-go. You'll be running into NPCs with animations and ai voice acting. It's engaging. They get you setup with crewmates and guns. Gameplay loop is a lot like driving a warthog in Halo, and you also are shooting the gun. Then you repair afterwards. Good UI to do so. Crew mates can be upgraded.

First off, for early access I got almost 100 hours of good gameplay. 100%'d all the achievements so far. Worth the price.

UPDATE: Still exploring this VAST world and am over 150 hours. I just want to say to the developers/designers/writers:
The amount of love put into the design and implementation of Embervale's geographic diversity is incredible. There are POI's as FAR as the eye can see, and in between each, i'd say HUNDREDS of hidden secrets. It cannot be stated enough, that this is a VAST world to explore with SO MUCH MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER SINK YOUR TEETH INTO in less than i'd say 180 hours of exploring.

UPDATE UPDATE:
The new dungeons they added are astoundingly detailed and vast. New enemies and environmental hazards are great. Good stuff. Frequent updates.

^ also with all that stated, the game is in Early Access and I have to point out that also means MOST of the map is restricted and you cannot go into it. This means that you already get an unheard of, and STAGGERING, amount of stuff to explore and its like, 30% of the overall planned map size. This is amazing.

I'll try to offer info on stuff most reviews won't go into.

You can tank. Like, you can keep threat, so your teammates can get backstab damage. This is a big deal for me, because I tank in a lot of games and most survival open world crafting games don't have this ability.

Skill Tree!!!
Wanna be a tank? Wanna be a rogue? Wanna be a battle mage? Wanna be all 3? You can go down twelve skill trees and mix and match grabbing fun things from other trees pretty easily. Respecing is low cost so you can experiment or change for quick role swaps easily. This feature really makes the game FUN!

Craftspeople
You find 5 "craftspeople" (aka npc's) that you place in your base as a new take on crafting benches.
They are new and different because they give quests to go get <crafting bench upgrade pieces like a table saw for example>
They have requests about how they want to live, like, hey, give me a roof would ya? Which is a nice personification of the crafting station, makes you want to invest in your base.
For example, we got the alchemist, and thought whoah lets make a really great looking alchemy workshop for this guy and went ham for a few hours really building a nice area for him. Now we scavenge books like crazy to put on his bookshelfs.
It makes investment in the building system into a nice cycle as you unlock more and more furniture, block types etc.

Differences from other games of its type:
- Skipping the night doesn't require all players to sleep. One player sleeping increases night speed by 30x (differs with number of players on) and that stacks.
- Gliders replace any need for a mount.
- You may place down a flame shrine to teleport to and from it. More placeable at a time as you upgrade the flame shrine level at your base.
- Sticky flair arrows for night time gives options for leaving a torch off your hotbar. Also firefly potions.
- Crafting from containers is reinforced by lore, as you have boring normal containers, but you can imbue them with magic to make crafting from containers "wirelessly" from all npcs or workbenches.
- Screw up while building or mining? Hit the 'Y' key to undo!
- Don't have the key to the door? OH well, just mine through the wall. No one has time for annoying back tracking.
- Friends who don't have time to no life it? Have them login, afk, and all xp gained gets partially given to them no matter how far away the kill is.

Just a few things. I'll update as I go.

My experience is from 2 (most of time) to up to 6 total players on our server. You can have up to 16* though.
*requires friends.

Spaceship flying is nothing special and you cannot even roll left and right. Space combat feels clumsy because of this. A ship passes you and you have to use the mouse controls to turn the ship instead of rolling and pitching up for example. It's just really simple and not fun for me.

Gunplay on foot seems like its the real focus of the game and you cannot peek left or right. Enemy AI is dull and unengaging.
Sorry, this one is just not my cup of tea.

Here is my take if play valheim with the boys and you're wondering if this is a good one to pick up. Here is what I said to them:

"Like, it had way more complex gearing, way more complex upgrading your gear, the combat was just generally more fun due to your weapons having profound advantages vs certain enemies based on type -- it was also quite ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ challenging i had to turn the damn difficulty down solo.

All the mods we added to valheim for quality of life are baseline in grounded. Hot deposit near chests built in. Blueprint (ghost) building before hand built in. Storage and inventory sort built in. Armor dummy hot swapping for loadouts built in. Map markers with custom icons and custom text built in. Hell you can even move anything around without emptying it out, like if you want to move a chest around you can just do it without having to empty it out and put it in another one.

If we all did a playthrough together, i swear we'd have just as much if not more fun than we did playing valheim."

solid game and they're about to release a big update this summer

Its crazy how much you can do and how many playstyles you can get into. I recommend grabbing a few mods as well in the workshop. Fun game. Highly recommend.

Just enough meat in the sandwich to make it worth while. A great game when you're bored between games, and you can hop on your phone and pick up where you left off because its free on the app stores.

There is no other substitution for a space sim IMO other than Elite Dangerous: Odyssey. I've had an absolute blast playing this finely polished game. Do yourself a favor and buy it, and spend some time reading the in game codex for guidance on things. There are lots of 3rd party sites to help you as well, which can be found on the discord, or by simply doing a web search. Great community, great game. Highly recommend. (and if you want to play this one in VR, BOY ARE YOU IN FOR A TREAT!!!)
