Edit: 90 hours in now and the game just keeps pulling me back in with the exploration, progression and fun of building a settlement. Have been slow rolling taking on the bosses on purpose and just generally exploring each new island as I come across it. The combat at this point is more difficult but not a major challenge. Only thing really annoying are the damn mosquitoes but they fly straight at you so if you're quick with your bow you hardly even have to aim.

So far this is one of the best Early Access games I've ever played and a great survival crafting game on top. Doesn't really feel like one most of the time with all the content and how well it all works. Hope the devs keep at it because this could end up being an absolute gem of a game.

Running a private server with about 10 players jumping in and there have been zero bugs and only occasionally a bit of lag during world backup.

Only thing so far a bit odd is the building. Snap points seem to be an issue at times when more than a couple pieces intersect which I'm sure will get refined and is only occasionally a frustration. Fairly easy to build a simple dwelling and only gets fussy when you're trying to build something fancy.
