Good for players who want a tense experience that can work solo or with friends. Farming and harvesting are part of the appeal. Base building is part of the loop. It can make sense as a solo choice. It tends to be better with friends.
Who might skip it
Skip if you want a relaxed pace. Skip if you do not want a tense game.
