Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
For early access, game never crashed in 20 hours, graphics ... i've spend 95% of time in building mode, but it seems somewhat demanding and maybe poorly optimized (LOD of distant trees too high?), Sound of industry is a bit repetitive and annoying.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Its a superb blend of immersion, intelligent design, and replayability, that makes it the kind of game you would want to come back to again and again.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
I later left it to play other games, and even later came back to this to play multiplayer with another friend as co-op (where we both play the same company).
