It was a stupid mechanic, and the reason I lost interest in the game.
Same, may give it another try now that I’m not locked out of progression.
I was hyped when I first heard about it. And with them dropping the shitty mechanic that was putting me off, I’ll definitely grab it at some point.
Looks like it’s 20% off right now, but reading through the recent(ish) reviews, it looks like it’s still in a state that I would likely find aggravating. Namely AI jank, and enemies spawning/despawning while in view.
That said, a positive review makes an excellent point:

We bullied the devs into releasing the game early and are upset that it’s unfinished. I love the concept, but still needs a ton of polish and tweaks to be perfect. Give em time to cook.
It’s been on my wishlist, despite the now defunct water mechanic, since I heard about it. And I’ll give the Devs the time they need to cook.
Wrong call. The mechanic is fine, really adds to the atmosphere, the game just isn’t (or wasn’t at the time i played it) in a place where it’s fun to routinely play yet. The thing they actually need to look at is the elite hunters being called in a sun m soon as you do anything.
