This is a great take. If you go in try to "beat" the game, you could beat it pretty fast, but I can't imagine that being a great gaming experience. Plus, those bosses will be pretty darn hard without top gear.

If you go into the game and appreciate that the journey is the reward....and you're trying to survive while navigating through the next biome, you'll have a great time, especially if you have a friend or 3 to play with.

Exactly this. My wife and I go purposely slow. We have made and upgraded almost everything from a given biome by the time we kill its boss and move on to the next biome. We gather extra metals and materials, build, farm, and raise far more than is "necessary". We just find it more fun to enjoy the journey and do all the things.
