Decent crafting system
Enjoyable and rewarding sailing and exploration...
On repetition, the game literally has one task repeated ad nauseam.
As a result of the repetition and limited variety, has no real replay value.
A non-existent story that, for whatever it wants to be, is told abysmally.
Survival mechanics (hunger) are too overbearing and need tweaking.
Buggy and has a tendency to crash.
