This game is great when you first begin. Better than any Survival game of ever played. Crafting and Gathering is much easier than any other game. However once you advance the game it reverts right back to the same as any other game. Basic weapons are useless. They wear out instantly against enemies and animals. Advanced weapons and Firearms are almost impossible to make because the resources can't be gathered without protecting yourself with an advanced weapon and full energy. Survival = $$$$
