DO NOT BUY Sons of the Forest

Reviews Sons of the Forest's £25 early-access survival sandbox as bland and unoriginal, resembling realistic Minecraft with unclear objectives. Enjoys flexible log-building and limited social cooperation, but finds gathering, fiddly inventory, repetitive construction, and bare-bones combat unrewarding. On an RTX 3060 laptop, high settings are laggy; he lowers graphics, rates it 4.2/10, and recommends waiting for polish or price reduction.

His recent gaming-content strategy continues: buying anticipated releases, then framing weak engagement as poor value and limited replayability.
