Sorry to say, I just don't see how the 8+ months of development only yielded a few building pieces and a few foods and a few weapons? I'm not a programmer, but this seems an abnormally small *major* update. It also just flat wasn't true that this is a "hearth" and "home" based update when in reality it's more like "kind of hearth" and "kind of home" and "kind of combat" as well. It's a mixture of several piecemeal things, instead of the comprehensive building update I thought was promised. It's a shame there's no new stone pieces or shapes, no curves, circles, arches, etc. No angled iron beams. Limited decorations, and the new crafting stations and addons are very very bulky and hard to fit in home-sized spaces. I imagine they're only meant for huge viking halls, because these pots and pants and ovens aren't fitting in grandma's kitchen. Some pleasant surprises like crystal stuff and riding loxes, but again, 8+ months for this stuff? Even with a tiny studio is this normal? Very confusion
Not saying yes or no Either way, BUT from messing with combat I do think that there have been some changes to damage numbers and effects as well. so the game has had a balance pass as well.
Its upto everyone to decide though if thats "enough for them", but our choices are get angry and complain or enjoy the update and play other things if its not our cup of tea. Personally, Iv had a lot of fun with this game. and think I got my moneys worth even without more content.
