Gameplay

Right now, I have to say the best part of Novus Inceptio is the crafting system.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
44 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Graphics are a solid 7/10, I play on ultra w/ FX8350 oc4.3 and GTX970 16GB RAM, a little stuttering while the game saves.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Would love it if we could choose whether to play as male or female and customise our characters appearances and would love to see this getting its co-op/multiplayer game mode up and running, i love the simplicity and calm of the single player game play but i think this would also be a lot of fun with friends too.
