What players say

86% of 25,326 reviews are positive · 81% of 98 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the characters, story, world-building, and crafting-focused progression. The main complaint is that multiplayer is a separate, reduced sandbox without the single-player story; players also report lingering bugs, crashes, and worsening performance in longer saves, while some find the lengthy campaign poorly paced.
