Had a lot of fun with the demo. Then crimson desert came out and I haven’t played anything since. 😀

Yeah, super stoked for this one.

It might have a better building system than even Enshrouded - which I think is the best to date in the genre.

Not 100% sure on this one yet, games that have building typically suck at combat. Usually devolves into ranged kiting.

The combat in the game can be difficult, especially starting out when there's not much armor and there is kiting to be had early on. From what I've read this normalizes a bit later on. I've not really found combat to be an issue in many of the games I've played/enjoyed, honestly. Do you have examples?

Enshrouded, Valheim, Icarus, 7 Days to Die, Palworld, Subnautica, Sons of Forest, Soul Mask, Dragonwilds…

you didn’t like the combat in any of those? That’s just so weird to me I guess, I loved it.

Combat is OK, but efficiency is ranged kiting to all.

Most of the best builds in Conan Exiles were melee builds.

Also, it's a fucking pirate game. Do you play pirate games to slash people with sabres all day? Or do you play pirate games to blast people in the face with a blunderbuss?

Pirates bought/stole a lot of (at the time) state of the art firearms. I visited a pirate museum many years ago that had stuff recovered from the wreck - they had blinged out French pistols and stuff

When I see skinny towers it worries me that there might be an overactive stability system.

The rotations looked very flexible. Maybe a 10 degree snap? Going to make floors and walls hard to join up though, and the navmesh will be a mess. Does this have pathing npcs/ animals?
