Kazuhiro writes: A very interesting game that is sadly ruined largly by poor design decisions and being very very unfriendly to new players. Starting out you can only make the most basic things, and to move onto anything above banging two stones together. (Even that to a degree as well.) Requires you travel to schools to learn how. That may not sound bad, but those schools take nearly a week of real life time (Actively playing) traveling over the game world to find. So you will spend a week (I remind you of actual playing time.) running over a massive landscape before you can really even start to play the game. Great concept, terrible implementation, and S...L...O...W starting out. Sun May 01 2011 9:40PM
