    I never finished it.

    I hated that my weapons constantly broke. I didn’t find the world particularly interesting to explore. The puzzles felt tedious.

      Same. Got 8 hours in and wasn’t enjoying at all. Thought that was enough time to put into something I got no joy from.

        The cooking mechanics were pretty annoying. And I disliked weapons breaking. But it is a specific type of game, and for its type it is extremely good.
