Everything this game has, other games do better. The crafting and building in it is linear and weak - 7 Days to Die is light years ahead of this, with a literal fraction of the team size. Survival and Realism? DayZ has this beat - and I never thought I'd say that. Optimization? 7 Days to Die has it beat. One could say "this just came out" - but the engine limitations answers that question. It's not voxel based.

It has incredibly cartoony graphics - completely lacking the photo-realism of DayZ, and thus, will never be a truly good survival game. Everything is bright colors - almost like World of Warcraft - and that's not a stretch.

Worst of all - NAMEPLATES. It has name plates. How, in what universe, would something designed to make you stick out, have a place in a survival game? I was running on the outskirts of a town, and while running passed a bush, I saw a nameplate appear in the middle of a bush - I was nowhere near it. The poor sap was AFK or something, so I beat him to death and took his things. It has to be done to show people how stupid this is. Unfortunately, since I stream, it's better to buy games to provide reviews for an audience, but if I didn't, I honestly would have never bought it. I can't help but to think that the bigger streamers that gave constant thumbs up to it were shilling for dat $$. It's honestly an incredibly dull experience, and since there's nameplates, you can't hide, everyone sticks out visually from surroundings - it's a big death match at best. This will never be a survival game. move on.
