there needs to be more padding on the walls for him

Two things worth mentioning. There are very limited ways of earning XP, basically quests and POIs / camps. On the map page, at the bottom right you can see how many POIs you've completed on each biome so you can max them out and get all that sweet sweet xp.
 
The other one, and this is a big one, is to always have some building mats on you. Boars don't seem to break through walls, so when facing multiple, you can box some of them in and face one at a time. This trivialized a fight I had to do many times over.
 
Question - ship combat - do you always sink the other vessels, or also board them and wreck them? I've only tried boarding two vessels. One from my tiny little dinkyboat, and the other was the first ship for the quest. On both occasions I was fighting a seemingly endless supply of dudes and eventually gave up. Is there a trick to this or just keep killing them until they stop?

What a fuckin dumbass. I've spent the last few nights sucking at ship battles, and wondering why I couldn't upgrade anything on my Shipwright's workbench. 
 
 
Turns out you have to remove the stuff from the ship and then upgrade it at the workbench. 
 
 
Yanno those warnings on shampoo bottles? Yeah, me. All me.

For the ship combat, you get more stuff from boarding, I’d say it’s mostly worth boarding the haulers/transports, there is a counter in the top right of your screen during the boarding process which tells you how many enemies you/your crew has to kill. Upgrading your boarding crew helps with this a lot.
 
I also agree the xp gain is slow, I do wish you would get it from combat, farming and building as well but I can see how they have intentionally slowed it down to match your exploration which makes sense, it’s just annoying 😂

I might have a look, certainly looks good. 

So ya. This game is good. After the raging success of Arc Raiders and my inexplicable sudden loss of interest in it, I've been looking for something new to play, with trusty old WoW plugging away in the background, and this is it.
 
It even made me order a new GPU as my current one ramps the fans to 100℅ randomly and then just sits there trying to air-dust the whole postcode.
 
The graphics are good, the combat is very rewarding once you suss it out, the exploration is like nothing else, the crafting and gathering is well balanced unlike some games which will have you chopping down entire forests just to build one fucking door (*cough* Valheim). I've only just finished up the first island and got the first ship, I'm now just exploring the various POIs on the map to get some XP. 
 
Really enjoying it, and just when I thought I'd got the boars sussed, the game throws those charging fuckers at me.
 
 
Cunts.

The charging boars have already been subject to some very funny videos on youtube 😂 
 
Yes you don’t need to chop down a whole forest yet… You’ll get there trust me 🤣 Stick to the ficus trees and the palm trees are a joke in terms of amount of wood you get.
 
I really wish I could have been there to hear you discover the charging boars 😂 Next time join the discord!

That is all.

I love how @TurboR56Mini went straight from "I'm downloading the demo" to "we have a server" lol.
 
I'm downloading it now, be good to fuck about with you cunts again 😄 

It gets better when you get used to parrying them. But yeah, I had a loooot of deaths to them both on the demo and early on in the early access 😂
