I kickstarted this, played it for 10 minutes, got my ass kicked by some wolves, and never played it again. I need to retry.

Lol I played TLD before the story mode was implemented, there was only open survival mode and starting points. The exploring and resource management is really fun, and wolves and cold snaps force you to move from barn to barn and sticking near car wrecks, getting a working hunting rifle was quite hard.
Sounds like my kinda game!
Is pretty great! It hits the right balance between survival and crafting for me.
Dang I didn't realize they were still updating this game, it's been around for a long time.
A sequel was recently announced so it’s probably good to stir up some interest.
They could stir up interest by actually finishing the first game.
There are supposed to be 5 story episodes, i think the last released episode (4) was three years ago.
Since then they've released a full DLC and are close to releasing the second game from what i can tell.
I'm not bitter or anything, i haven't got past the second episode yet, so this makes zero difference to me personally.
The update is ok. Stuff like terrain blending looks bad and the random environment things, like rocks falling, do break the immersion because they repeat in the same places.
The games been riding the line of too many changes the last couple years and losing the uniqueness that makes it great.
It's such a beautiful game already. I've died while distractedly marvelling at the Aurora while the soundtrack permeated my soul.
It's a great game with great gameplay and which is surprisingly replayable in survival mode if you go a year or two between plays.
It's also one which, IMHO, doesn't need visual enhancements - their choice of visual style was masterful (it works and is a lot cheaper in terms of 3D modelling costs that something more realistic would have been) and it's the gameplay (which is pretty much all emergent gameplay in survival mode with no fixed set-pieces, though on a fixed game map) that makes it a great game.
I really wanted to, but I couldn't get into it... Uninstalled it a while back.
