How early access is it actually if you know what i mean? :)

I'd agree it's about half done, but extremely playable as is (there's plenty of full release games which don't feel as finished in a lot of ways). But, if you don't like starting over in this type of game now and then, I'd hold off playing for now.

Why? There's at least 4 significant content additions planned to flesh out a couple of mostly empty biomes and add more general content. We're about to get the first on the 16th which is Hearth & Home, that will add more building options, food types & all that goes with that, some combat adjustments and likely more we don't know about yet :)

Although the devs don't want to force people to start new games when these new content drops are released, it's likely to be something you need to do depending on how much of the map you have already uncovered etc.

Personally I enjoy starting over in games like this a few times because I can keep improving based on what I learned with each run, but I know there's plenty who don't enjoy doing that.
