I don't get this game at all or why it has good reviews. I'm about 15 hours in, bored to tears. Nothing happens at night besides a guy or two creeps in. I have all these items that nobody cares about. People say there's a story? There's like 2-3 people who talk to me, and it's just random tidbits. I have probably 10 code locked doors I can't open, with supposed RNG or game file things you need to look online to open. Many of the quests seemingly don't have the prerequisite spawning in whatever seed of the game I'm in.. there's no survival really. I die sometimes at night, I die sometimes at day. Ok, go pick my stuff up and move on. Night time is by far the most boring unimaginative part of the game. Making my house all safe leads to me just sitting in a room waiting, and I shoot whatever comes in the face. The end. It's not tense. I've spent like an hour I think "doing" anything, and about 14 hours running around horribly slow. I'm honestly baffled why this has good reviews - it's terrible. I think there could have been a good game here, or maybe I just got the most awful seed possible. I had no troubles and found the game pretty easy, for the "l2p" crowd. I am very disappointed, waiting for the game to become fun or something to happen. On my way to rush and finish it now I guess after scouring the map and having almost nothing happen whatsoever. Just middling and terrible. Good art and music I guess?

Oh wow. This really does have to be one of my new all-time favorite indie games. The dark themes, stunning art, immersive story. Just all around amazing. I had such a fantastic experience with this game, to the point that I didn't want the story to end. And I want to get even deeper into the lore!!! I'm completely hooked lol. The only reason I'm hesitant to start a second playthrough is bc of the nighttime segments, which became tiresome just bc of how long and tedious they were. Not even necessarily difficult, just, eugh. I had so many things I wanted to do, and being limited by time just to have to sit there for 10 in-game hours while occasionally fighting a baddie was a bit exhausting. Not really a game design flaw or anything, just a personal preference? I got bored of that fraction of the gameplay loop lol. But overall, would def recommend to any souls-like fans, as weird of a comparison as that may be. This game isn't hard hard, when ur playing on normal at least like I did lol, just a bit unforgiving and it won't hold your hand. Which it does warn abt. The learning curve was rough but once I got competent I stopped dying pretty much entirely and had a blast just experiencing the world.
