I appreciate your thoughts, Sarteck.

Hmm lets see, 7 Days to Die, Subnautica (1&2), State of Decay, Breathedge, Satisfactory. That enough of a pedigree for you? Go tell your momma how to suck eggs. I been playing video games since before you were born, wizard_of_woz.

I hear what many of you are saying: Most of your complaints can be addressed from outside the game, i.e. Youtube vidoes, changing monitor settings, or mods. I suppose that I should be more considerate of the fact the game is in Early Access but I just prefer going into new games blind and getting everything I need to enjoy the game from inside the game itself.....ok well at least to start lol.

Is Hugin more helpful than the two interactions I have had with him thus far? Perhaps, but since I started the game in the middle of the night I dont see him around after those first two chats. Did see him after I died but I dunno maybe starting the game in daylight would be more user friendly and less atmospheric. I have a torch to start with? If so, I dunno, maybe some little pop up window telling you how to access your inventory and how to use said torch would be helpful. I know, I can go into settings and find out how to open my inventory but some barebones pop ups just seems more organic these days.

Also, I play on a 70in OLED TV so monkeying with the settings to play one video game is a non starter for me.
