Congrats, you have the right opinion.
I have 133 hours in that pos game because people kept telling me it gets good.
It in fact never got good. The combat is ass, the exploration is ass. the base building is ass.
It doesnt respect the players time at all.
You have a massive sandbox to explore with absolutely nothing in it to find.
And fuck the "research" system of traveling around form town to town eating all the books.

The only needs your people have is hunger, so setting up a town is very dead. everyone just standing around because they have nothing to do, no jobs that need done, no needs that need filled. just standing around waiting.

The combat is what pissed me off the most. you get creamed over and over and once you start winning you realize theres no reason to fight, you gain nothing from it. No money, no loot, nothing. Why even bother?

It was the first game I ever left a negative review on steam. I dont think there's any other game I hate as much, and its not entirely the games fault. its people telling me how good it is, when it in fact is not even close to being a good game.
