I think the big problem is that they don't add more options to make the game more accessible. The one option I would like added is monsters attacking your bases. If they added that the game would be at least be playable and less self flagellation.

Uh, that's happened to me, several times. There is usually some message about it, just before they start spawning in in waves. It's not particularly difficult, more annoying, as this usually happens when it's getting dark, I'm exhausted from spending all day cutting down trees and picking up bits of this and that to build that other thing I need, in order to build that thing I want, to be able to build that other thing I really need.
