Here is my review so far:
Pros: 1. Cooking is great, i really want to see how far that can be developed, there is really room for growth making your own meals for buffs , different foods can provide you with longer stamina, better agility so you can swim faster or jump higher.
2. Sleeping is more of a flavor cosmetic feature but it is also nice because it gives you immersion
3. Ranged combat is actually good and the bow handles well
4. The new inventory is amazing, crisp clean and has its own art style simply outstanding work, the persons that worked on that need a raise.
Some Cons:
1. Melee combat still a lot to be improved on, dodging is fine its responsive however combat needs its own feel and to me it should feel agile but not to the point where my spear just flies through rocks and sand, some collision detection is needed, maybe a bit slower pace
2. Still graphical bugs, like SSAO in caves is black, lighting in interiors should be a little brighter even if there no outside light sources.
3. Some stability issues but those can be patched
Summary: An overall solid build with good features that are much needed to bring life into the game.
