I wanted to like this game and tried so hard but I cant recommend it.. It has some good bones, and some good ideas, things I haven't come across before but its not enough even being an EA.. There are a number of game breaking bugs that can totally pooch your progress to the point where you need to download a trainer to bypass the issues. For that reason I do not recommend it. Perhaps in a year or two it will be good but not yet.

I have been evaluating whether to buy and test this title for a long time, as I had played it prior to release. Back then, I criticized the game and one of the devs was somewhat arrogant to me, but I still waited a good while to give it another chance and test it again. After many updates, the game got "better" than my initial experience, but the old problems remain. This is a game that seems to want to be something, but isn't. Everything in it is an eternal "almost there." Want to explore? The game turns into a giant walking simulator. Want to craft? The inventory is extremely limited and items don't stack properly. Resources are scarce, everything is spread too far apart, and the recipe learning mechanic feels like it locks your progress on purpose. To make matters worse, there are many objects in the scenery that you simply cannot interact with, which is terrible for immersion. The devs could at least leave these items broken or destroyed, as that would make more sense logically. Finding a cabin with perfectly usable beds available and having to suffer to find shelter just to craft a "bed" out of sticks on the floor seems completely irrational to me. But unfortunately, all of this goes way beyond that. Want to hunt? The world is completely empty. You can walk, walk, and walk some more, and at most you'll get attacked by a predator out of nowhere, with very raw AI. Want to fish? You're better off buying a dedicated fishing simulator so you don't have to go through the other monotonous and clunky stages of this game. The truth is that I caught myself persistently trying to like this game, refusing to believe how empty it is. It even gets exhausting due to the lack of optimization and performance stutters happening across various parts of the map. But well, I only played the first area and maybe it gets much better later on. But for me, a game has to showcase its full potential right from the start. It shouldn't force me to endure or "survive" boredom until reaching its "complete" part. Everything in the game is scarce. For those who enjoy this slow pacing, fine. But for anyone with limited time or who prefers a faster, more dynamic experience, the game simply punishes you and drains your drive to keep going. Combine that with stiff mechanics, questionable dev choices, and annoying bugs... the gameplay ends up sluggish and restrictive. On the bright side, the map is huge and the environment is genuinely beautiful. You can feel there is plenty of room for a richer, livelier, and more complete world down the road, which is quite encouraging. The places to explore are intriguing and leave you wanting more. Ultimately, I still believe in this game's potential and would give it a neutral rating if Steam allowed it. I think the developers should focus less on dragging the player along and more on delivering a rich, optimized, and living world, while giving real weight to hunting, crafting, fishing, and exploration.

This game is a lot of fun, kayaking with the boys with a hint of government conspiracy

I've been really enjoying The Gold River Project so far. What I really like about it is the balance between survival, challenge, exploration and mystery. The game can be challenging at times, but at the same time it can be surprisingly relaxing. You can just head out into the wilderness, explore, gather resources and take your time. Then suddenly you stumble across something strange that makes you wonder what is actually going on. The mysterious side is probably my favourite part. The game doesn't constantly hold your hand or tell you exactly where to go. You find clues, notes and strange locations, and you have to piece things together yourself. Sometimes you'll end up in some really bizarre places simply because you decided to follow a small clue you found somewhere else. That feeling of actually discovering something yourself makes exploration really rewarding. There's always that little thought in the back of your mind that there might be something unusual waiting around the next corner. You can definitely tell it's still Early Access, though. There are some small bugs and rough edges here and there. For example, I've had patches on my backpack disappear when getting into a canoe. Nothing game-breaking, but little things like that remind you that the game is still being developed. Personally, I don't mind those Early Access imperfections at all. The atmosphere, exploration and mystery already make it a really enjoyable experience for me, and I'm curious to see where the developers take it from here. If you don't mind the occasional bug or unfinished detail that comes with Early Access, I'd definitely recommend giving The Gold River Project a try. If you enjoy exploration, survival, mysterious locations and figuring things out for yourself, there's a lot here to like.

In The Gold River Project ist nichts so, wie es scheint Ich habe The Gold River Project schon länger beobachtet. Nachdem ich die kostenlose Demo ausprobiert hatte, war ich direkt angefixt und habe mir anschließend die Vollversion im Early Access gekauft. Ich habe das Spiel bis zum aktuellen Entwicklungsstand durchgespielt und es hat mich wirklich gefesselt. Es gab einige Momente, in denen ich eigentlich aufhören wollte, aber unbedingt noch wissen musste, wie es weitergeht. Besonders die Rätsel der Substations und die Hinweise in den Notizen der anderen Überlebenden haben mir sehr gefallen. Ich mochte es, die Welt zu erkunden und nach und nach herauszufinden, was hier eigentlich passiert ist. Ein paar kleinere Bugs gab es natürlich, aber das hat mich überhaupt nicht gestört. Es ist Early Access und damit kann ich gut leben. Besonders positiv fand ich außerdem die Kommunikation mit dem Entwicklerteam. Über Discord oder die Steam-Diskussionen bekommt man schnell und persönlich Antworten, wenn man Fragen oder Probleme hat. Ich freue mich schon auf die fertige Version und werde definitiv wieder reinschauen. Ich möchte schließlich noch herausfinden, was wirklich hinter dem Geheimnis von Gold River steckt – und wie zum Teufel man aus diesem Experiment wieder entkommen kann. Aber vielleicht ist die eigentliche Frage nicht, wie man aus Gold River entkommt – sondern warum man überhaupt hier ist...

O jogo ainda precisa de ter muita otimização, tem uns gráficos bons, para quem gosta de jogos de sobrevivência e mistério recomendo. Eu comprei em promoção, pois está um pouco caro para um jogo ainda em desenvolvimento.

Game is good, even though its in early access and has a way to go the developers are active in the forums helping people. pretty keen to see where this game goes.
