this game brings me joy

edit: after 25 hours in game and beating the final boss, i cant recommend the game to new players even for players who had WorldsAdrift.

for people who had played WA. well... it is WA but less. same mechanic, same system, same graphics as the game was shutdown. systems that you would expect to be fixed such as the inventory to be improved cant be found it is still the same as WA.

for people new to this. you will hate the controls as you cannot rebind them. the dev team is working on it

for everyone. the game has plenty of immersion breaking bugs that forces you to start over (respawn) and lose the loot you gathered (sad day for all loot goblins) a lot of the items that WA players expect to be there such as improved engines (specifically jet engines) are a needle in a hay stack, endless amounts of food blue print are expected tho so youll never go hungry. (do you want some spicy tomato soup? here, i have 3 cupboards filled with its bp)

as for my take? as i said, it brought me joy, it filled the void that WA left when it got shutdown. but it did feel a little bit lacking although it is my fault for expecting more. I did hear that Bossa was working on it a few years back and i wont lie i was expecting them to finish it early as the game is already there just needed to change how it worked, no need to start from the ground up.. well i was not wrong. I see the same exact assets that was used WA just... different...

thanks Bossa for dusting off the assets of WA and releasing it again :v (seriously thank you) i didnt even know that people who owned WA was supposed to be given a discount i didnt even get that cause as soon as i recieved the email that the beta release is out i bought the game. pretended i was sick to leave work early and went home to play LOL.

EDIT! 60 hours in.
Recent updates to the game has fixed a lot of the issues the game had on early release. tutorial and story line is a lot more polished and leaves room for further content, and i like that a lot.

here are the things I have noticed so far:
-Loot table is a lot more tolerable/balanced getting engine bp is not as rare anymore and progression with it isnt a torture.
-Player made islands are now actually fixed although a bit of bandaid fix for some of them and i understand why the author of the island wouldnt want to change a lot of it to fix it cause it does take a lot of time.
-Inventory system, well to be exact moving items from your backpack to storage is slightly better but can be improved futher.
-optimization, somehow the game got worse with this big update less framerate etc.

finally, do i recommend the game? absolutely its a lovely way to decompress its like Elite D but less of the terrifying vastness of space, the fear of crashing into a star or just getting eaten by blackhole. anyway, WA players ITS HERE!! new players? come oon iiiin.
