Welcome back M'Lord!

I really can't understand why these skins isn't in the base game from the day one...

This game is largest time-invested dissapointment for the last decade.

1. Scout ornitopter stuck in the terrain, rubberbanding up and down, without any way to get it up in the middle of the desert. Lost 30 hours because of bug.
2. Buggy stuck on the hood and spun on it like a pinwheel for minutes, after that rolled it in minutes and I brought Orni to hit it, it fall on wheels... and exploded. Another 20 hours lost because of a bug.

In total: ~50 hours lost because it's not my fault, but the game keeps punishing me for game's own mistakes. Im good when in Darkest Dungeon I lost my 30 hours party, because used wrong skill or just did something wrong, but then it's because of bug... And not even once, it's disapointing.

The game is great, but few minor bugs, which are usually negligible in any other games, here are devastating. Don't get me wrong, I love this game, there many great stuff to do, but it is so de-initiative, that it is disappointing.

UPD:
Another orni eated by invisible worm:

It would be hard to The Elder Scrolls VI beat that game.

This is my Shovel. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

My Shovel is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.

Without me, my Shovel is useless. Without my Shovel, I am useless. I must strike my Shovel true. I must hit harder than my enemy who is trying to kill me. I must strike him before he strike me. I will ...

My Shovel and I know that what counts in war is not the strikes we swing, the noise of our bash, nor the mess we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit ...

My Shovel is human, even as I [am human], because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its handle and its edge. I will keep my Shovel clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will ...

Before God Emperor, I swear this creed. My Shovel and I are the defenders of my world. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life.

So be it, until victory is Imperium of Man and there is no enemy, but peace!

Good openworld, fine sandbox, decent shooter, tolerable builder, bad Fallout.

1. This is not live service game, this is singleplayer, offline oldschool videogame, which is not required constant "updates" to be worth it or not, it must be valued by the game itself at current state.

2. 25$/Euro, it's a little higher than most indie on the market, but there: discounts and localized prices, which is cut up to 80% of price depending on region, even with some weak economic regions it's available and without need to make choice between comfort of living and purchasing of videogame. Price is fair in total.

3. The game is unique, which is add more value to the game, all closest relatives like LA Noire, Disco Elysium or Nobody Wants To Die is... Linear games in a manually created world, with extremely limited replayability. SoD is too when you mastered gameplay mechanics and generated situation templates become a more predictable, but still able to give you entertained gameplay in a much better way for long term games than any linear game. This is generated content gameplay after all, it has its own pros and cons, which is unique. Probably there is something like this on the market, but I doubt there will be a classic neon-noir Blade Runner style game, which is for most awesome extra credit.

4. The game is complete by itself. It's perfect? No. It could be better? Yes. But can you have fun in there at the current fair price and even with a discount? Hell yea. I bought the game not so long ago, kept an eye for the game for almost a year before a release, and the game is in a much better state than most indie for current price tag, thousands and thousands of games, which is the bottom of Steam, are way worse in many ways. And the game is still got some development in progress, which is good.

5. Make the game 1.0 release was a mistake? Yes. The terrible mistake, I may add, it's not only upset the active ingame community, but the devs missed the grand opportunity for a free boost in Steam's charts with release. Steam for every game that leaves Early Access, tries to give more main store page time for free, and because of mixed active playerbase reception, lots of bad reviews, many potential customers who saw that right after clicking on game from main page, prefer not buy the game and never will back to it, which is definitely will slow down and potential additional content...

But still, 1.0 is here, and the game got major bugs all over? Nope. The game got all the basic gameplay features to be fun and enjoyable? Yeap. The game is can be completed to the logic end without any outside fixes, severe bugs and end still be fun? Yes.

The game could have more content? Yes. Some of us wait for more? Definitely. But this is the reason not to buy the game, just because there are some "mirage of unreleased but promised stuff"? No. The game is done, and it's good for its price.

In total: worth it or not, it depends on from buyer perspective. For some 25 bucks is hellaoflot, for some it's dirt cheap, for some 92 yuans or 74 reals it's few days food, for some just Burger King's half a check. The game is finished, with "possible" additional content. The game can be fun and enjoyable with a fair price tag and localized prices without game breaking bugs. In the end, only that matters, and you choose, it's good for you to buy it or not.

For whose supported Early Access game - this is early access, even Steam with BIG LETTERS warn you about it. 1/2 games are never leave early access and 4/5 are not in promised by dev states, all popular stuff such as Don't Starve games, is from Green Light era, when it was needed more than 100$ to submit the game for Steam, and it's from 5% of successful indie games from Steam, rest - it's on the bottom, full of nothing. Be ready to be disappointed when you support Early Access stuff, because of that - I bought the game after 1.0 without the support pack, I found it fair deal at itself, if the game got more content, then I will buy a support pack upgrade, if not - Im happy with the deal that I already got.

Thank you Owlcat. This is was The Best RPG since Dragon Age: Origins, and it was 15 years since...

Спасибо Вам Owlcat. Это было Наилучшее RPG приключение с эпохи Dragon Age: Origins, а она вышла более 15-и лет назад...

I'm escaping to the one place that hasn't been corrupted by capitalism....

This is one of the most unique shooters what I ever saw. It’s got almost endless amount of content because players constantly create it, and even are a modest number of active players do not hurt to enjoy the game. It got fair difficulty split, for normal to newbies, hard for good player and brutal for those who mastered the game, so, do not be afraid what the game will be too hard for you.

And main positive aspect of the game – you will not lose anything if you fail. If you're killed – you not suffer penalty, if your outpost has been raided – you will not lose materials, even more – if outpost which you created good designed, but not get many kills, you still will get a lot of profit from it just because other players will compliment it. Be creative, build fun and enjoyable trap systems and good-looking outposts.

As I said before, the game is great even when is low online, so, try it, I hope you will have a good time.
