This game is so fun that despite putting over 100 hours in a playthough in such a short amount of time I already want to start fresh on a higher difficulty, try to play with my friends, and try a few mods. I love the sense of accomplishment and the feeling of options opening up each step of progression, I love fighting the bosses, I love my movement capabilities expanding to a degree I never imagined they would, I love exploring the world and being surprised by things dozens of hours in. I played on the smallest world type and despite my dozens of hours mining there’s still large chunks of my world I never had the chance to experience. I love the variety in weapons which feels wrong to say because I almost never touched any magic weapons and I still felt like I had a lot of options throughout my playthough, and I absolutely want to amend that my next one because I really felt like I was missing out. Was there some dull periods? Sure. I think there’s a few points where progress feels sluggish and I wish things were done a little differently. But the fact I’m still having fun during those few and far between moments speaks volumes to how well thought out this experience is. I don’t know how I slept on this game for so long, but it’ll be a keeper.
