Stranded Deep - Ch.2 - FLAILING IN THE DARK
7I know you guys really enjoyed my first video of this game, but I'm sorry to say, I can't continue this series, at least not at this stage of Stranded Deep's development. It's just too damned aggravating and stressful to record for me to reliably create good content for you with. I actually strongly considered not even uploading this episode, but decided to do so at Violita's insistence that you all deserve to see just how frustrating this game can be, which I can't disagree with, as far as advising potential buyers is concerned.
I've never encountered a survival game with so little direction, such arbitrarily arcane mechanics, and while I understand that uncertainty can indeed lend to the mystery and sense of desperation inherent to a good survival experience, one must balance that with the entertainment factor of a good game as well, else the experience become more of a frustrating chore than an exhilarating rush.
I'll state this now, as clearly as possible: I am not condemning this game outright, nor calling it an utter failure, or even a bad game (at least, not yet); I recognize that it is still an alpha title in an Early Access state, and as such, it is unfinished. What I'm saying is, I can only recommend this game, as it exists right now, to those who wish to observe and critique its development, rather than to those looking for a more finished and polished survival experience. I will come back to this game. However, I will only do so once it has updated into a more playable iteration.
