This expansion is really only a new subclass and a few more exotics which are gated behind an obscene time gate.

The "campaign" is not a campaign and more an introduction to the new subclass. While playing through the expansion you occasionally get access to the new subclass, but the ultimate abilities are way over tuned compared to what they normally are. I played Titan and my ult lasts 2-3x longer in campaign than outside the campaign.

In order to unlock the full class you need to do a large amount of quests to slowly progress it over time. Some of the quests can be completed in 4-6 hours, but the rest of the quests are time gated behind 7 WEEKS of playtime, and each of the weekly quests is some annoying quest along the lines of Kill 40 enemies conditionally, Collect 70 items, Kill 40 more enemies with different condition.

Coffee Stain delivers yet again.

Satisfactory is 5% survival 45% building and 50% cursing your previous self for building everything wrong.
There is more than enough content in the vanilla game to keep you occupied for 100+ hours with ease. Mods are supported which can bring the playtime up substantially with added milestones.

Currently there are 3 maps to explore so replay-ability is there, however I do wish the maps were more procedural (some parts of the map are procedural it seems, or maybe they just have different set spawns. However major nodes and encounters all seem to be pre-set).

Multiplayer is a little bit wonky, some functionality doesn't seem to work for the non-server owner, however these issues are far and few between. The game can easily be played solo or with friends without too much disruption.

One thing I would like to see improved/implemented is to maybe have a journal or some sort of log where the player can see all the known recipes without having to be near and interact with an assembler for example. It could help newer players be able to set goals and plan out layouts easier.

In a sea of early access scams Valheim puts even AAA developers to shame. You will not be able to tell that this game is in early access.

Playing the game blind has been an amazing experience which usually results in me seeing a new mob type and proceeding to run away from it before eventually getting owned.

This game is one of the cleanest, smoothest, bug-free survival games I have ever played, I cant wait to see what the developers come up with in the future.

Would highly recommend.

Great game to just chill out and play with a couple friends. Replayability is there to some extent, especially with the ability to try out different builds on different characters. It's been a ton of fun watching this game grow and being able to come back to it after every update.

Battle Royal is the only thing this game has going for itself...

Regular H1Z1;
Very boring, rather hard to find anything. Run for an hour, find some food, bust open a box, get killed by someone, repeat until you realize this game is just a worse version of rust/dayz and then realize you spent $20 on a game to hold w for 3 hours.

This game is very fun, simple, and yet addicting. I would recommend this to anyone that wants a chill game to play, that is also very fun.
