This game use to be fun until the last update, now your friends can't set the same home realm as you and if someone goes through a portal everyone goes through. The only way around this is to pay for a server through gportal. Edit to this comment, I got a gportal server just to play with friends and there's still the issue where if you want to go travel another realm everyone on the server has to go through too which is annoying since before you could go through portals on your own without effecting the others in the game.

So much promise, so little delivered. As you can see, I have well over 200 hours in. I'm not wasting anymore time on writing a detailed review, but I need to register a down vote for this game in it's current state. Very repetitive, very grindy. Some things make absolutely no sense. The best thing I can say about this game is maybe wait until it's out of Early Access. They might figure out what they're trying to do, and if done right, this game could be amazing. It's a long ways from here, though.

As much potential as this game had I'm sadly going to have to leave a thumbs down for this game. I log in after taking a break only to get some sort of strange network error and find my home with all my crafting tables and stored mats simply gone, respite zone is still there but there is nothing. I'm not about to grind again just to have some bug wipe my progress for a third time.

After a rough start the devs have corrected and upgraded most of this game to this final form and I have to say that they really did a wonderful job. The game as it is right now is very enjoyable, incredibly beautiful and quite exciting. I am currently playing it with my wife and we are both having a great time.

In my opinion, a vast improvement on what it was at launch. They overhauled it completely, it seems, and now the crafting aspect of the game is quite fun. There is a story you're working through as you're working on upgrading your gear. I, personally, enjoy the grind of working toward the next round of upgrades and equipment. In terms of building...there is still room for improvement there. It's a bit clunky getting the building elements where you want them, but not unworkable. More choices in customizing the appearance of your buildings and gear would be nice, but I went from playing the game for about a week at launch an then ignoring it, to playing it nonstop for (according to Steam) 362 hours.

This is a solid game. The changes that the creators have implemented over time are all for the better. I would like to see some more content, quests and the like, but it is a fun game as is.

Really not sure what all the hate is about. This game runs well, it's beautiful, the controls are smooth for the most part, and combat is pretty Skyrim-esque. Granted, I'm not super far into the game yet, but I'm having an absolute blast exploring and building. I'd definitely recommend checking it out. You'll know in the first couple hours if it's for you or not so it's well within the refund window. It's definitely worth your time if you're looking for something fresh.

We play a lot of survival-crafting games in 2-player co-op mode, and even though thematically Nightingale looked interesting, the game itself felt very lackluster. It's like it tries too hard, but it just doesn't deliver. The progression with the technology tree was incredibly tedious to work with, and even more so when playing with a controller. It became an exercise in frustration to actually try to build something, first due to the confusing tech tree, and second because aligning the buildings on the ground for them not to be crooked seemed nigh impossible. This needs a lot of work if it ever wants to compete with the likes of Valheim or Enshrouded.

This game sucks man...you sit down to play for a few minutes and the next thing you know 3 hours have gone by. That's what I call engagement. I am soooo glad I decided to get this game. Lost of fun and tricky puzzles to solve as well as the great quest so far.
