So yeah, of course I picked this game up, inevitable.
It's an excellent game, or it will be with some tweaks and bug fixes. Some things, like the inventory, crafting and building is overly complicated, which takes some getting used to. But most mechanics and UI are smooth.
It also looks great.
I don't expect to play too much for now but I'll be keeping an eye on development, and if anyone else picks it up let me know.
