It’s fairly fun, though it really felt lacking in the story department. The world had a ton of backstory on how the Shroud came to be and how the populace was impacted, but that was it. There was zero regard for why the player was awoken or what they hope to accomplish. Every quest in the game is “go get this so I can upgrade your crafting station” or “go here to find more loot”. There’s no survivors to rescue, no people to save, you’ve basically been thawed out on a desolate world.
“But it’s still Early Access!” Yes, and so far 1/3rd of the game map has been revealed, and there’s been zero mention of any kind of goals, like you had one quest to go investigate the keep (gosh, I hope everyone is ok), but your adventure has had zero impact on the world.
I put 300 hours into it on Linux (Arch).
