Steam Store Trash.

Forever Skies feels like Steam store filler more than a fully realized game. It runs poorly, and the visuals do not look nearly good enough to justify the performance issues. If a game is going to struggle this much, I expect something impressive on screen, and this is not that.

The story has been boring so far. It mostly feels like a chain of fetch quests with very little payoff, and none of it has been engaging enough to make me care about what happens next. Instead of building momentum, it just feels repetitive.

The gameplay is the biggest problem. It is severely lacking in anything that feels fun, satisfying, or memorable. I kept waiting for the loop to become enjoyable, but it never really did. Everything feels flat, and the game just does not offer enough excitement, depth, or polish to keep me interested.

Overall, I found it disappointing, tedious, and hard to recommend.

The gameplay is fine, even fun. However the game is unplayable completely for the host in COOP.

We're talking consistent 20FPS after just 20 minutes.

Baseline a decent game.
For anyone knowing the game 'RAFT' it's basically that, with an airship.

Now, is it as good as Raft? No, absolutely not. And for some specific reasons I'll hence have to give it a negative review as if you make a clone of a game with another theme I expect at LEAST the same quality or a unique twist mechanically.

The major issues I have:
-The game is a resource hog. It stutters at times because of poor optimization (like so many games nowadays) and even with a decently powerful machine it's not viable to play smoothly, which ruins the immersion at times. Some would say 'nitpicking' but that's my feeling about it as it could've been avoided.
-Dev decision. To 'provide a proper environment' they removed the ability for Notes to be chosen personally. This is... plainly spoken a moronic decision (moronic is the right word as it depicts a 'lack of common sense', so no, it's not insulting, it's the proper terminology here). Given this is a game which is either played single-player or Co-op this is NOT the task of developer to handle, and any such decision basically reducing capacity of the game in favor of censoring is something I'll punish accordingly as a customer. Hence the negative review.
- Unlike in Raft in this game there is no viable option to avoid 'annoying tedium' which nobody sane wants. Yes, several games do things like horde attacks on the base, or events which are supposed to keep the player on his toes. In this game it's a random flying creature attaching to your ship and destroying it slowly, and there is NO way to reliably stop that. In Raft you can make your building parts out of metal to ensure sharks don't attack anymore, hence a goal to remove the annoyance, here this doesn't exist.
- QoL is mediocre at best. Sorting is a mess, variety of items is large. There is no ability to quick-sort the same type of item into a chest without opening it. There is no option to store items to close-by chests. There is no proper labeling (as provided above). This is sub-par QoL for a modern game of this type and hence not acceptable.
