First off, I'm loving the gameplay so far! Very reminiscent of dos1 (a good thing) and the complex interactions of spells and effects is a nice upgrade on an already amazing combat system
The music is very good as well!
This being early access, ofc, I noticed a few glitches and things that are unfinished (visual artifacting during character creation, no voice acting, a lot of missing sound effects for interacting with items, containers not showing up when you press the 'alt' key, hotbar items not always activating on click, inconsistent item hotbar behavior while in combat, etc.)
One thing I'm not sure if it is planned to be changed or not - I would like it if, after opening and looting a container, when you close the interface window (if the container is empty) then the lid stays open to show it's been looted and is empty. That would be a nice little quality of life improvement. I've noticed others in their playthroughs on youtube say the same thing.
Another thing is, I would really like it if the lizards had more color options for skins (esp. primary colors). I realize red is not an option for lore purposes, but there are others that are missing as well.
As for the encounters, they feel fairly balanced so far. But then again it's hard to tell as I feel I've been fighting fights that weren't really intended to be fought at the point I'm at
I just enjoy trying to kill everything that's put before me whether it's level-appropriate or not.
I haven't experienced any crashes so far, which is definitely a good thing!
One small gripe is that I'm not a fan of the current method of activating crafting. I loved the original system in dos1 classic where you just dragged and dropped items onto one another. It was so simple and intuitive. I feel like the current system is just an unnecessary barrier between the player and crafting. It's also slower and less fluid and unnecessarily complex compared to the original system.
Also, it is unclear how the new repair system works since there isn't a repair skill anymore. I found that I could repair some items while others that were broken, I could not. And I could not determine why.
