An experience as deep and entertaining as you are willing to make it. This game is the kind that appreciates a slow burn player who is determined to get to know it inside and out. Any advantage you feel is taken from you can be wrested back through effort and calculation, even on the most extreme difficulty.
Truly a nascent masterpiece, I greatly look forward to seeing how it will evolve over the course of Early Access.
If you are curious to get a glimpse of it's future, I also recommend buying the digital art book. It is over 100 pages of gorgeous art work, developer commentary, and hints for the future!
