Has anyone tried this out? How does it compare to the likes of Rimworld?

It's on my wishlist but I rarely buy pc games on launch because of the **** state of most of them.

I've been reading a lot of reviews of it and seems to be quite mixed. Praise for its appearance etc but apparently has issues with pathfinding and AI and is lacking in content. Maybe one to keep an eye on and check back on in 6 months

I'd give it another year at least.

Yeah I get the impression they just got a MVP over the line to get it out of early access. Hopefully they do the right thing and add to the features through patches and not DLC

Unlikely with Frontier Developments as the publisher.

Good point. This is why I always miss these games. Initial launch feels bare, next time I check there is loads of dlc and I CBA.
Feel same about AOW4 but I suspect that has more to it although a different type of game.
