EDIT: I kinda realized I went hard on mechanics that make the game frustrating so I wanted to add that the game really is fun with friends especially the first few times you play and discover stuff in the game.

The guns are awesome and having the ore upgrades for all of them give a modded Minecraft grind feel.

There is a easily understandable tier of weapons, which is easily followable and you can spend a good bit of time on a new world acquiring.
