Developed by Endnight Games, it builds on the foundation of The Forest but expands everything—graphics, AI, crafting, and overall atmosphere—to a whole new level.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.

I loved the different melee and ranged choices, HOWEVER it seems there is a clear best choice for both. (katana and crossbow due to technically infinite ammo)
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The sounds are immersive and good BUT having every sound on the game bound to SFX is silly.
Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
You will be hard pressed to find a better optimized game on the entire marketplace than this, but I can only assume that it will still ask you to have at least a decent pc.
