Very intense and challenging game. It is amazing how well the different scenarios manage to introduce you to the lore and setting of the game and how their different stories are interconnected. These scenarios also offer you different choices that affect your final objectives and how you tackle them, giving you some sort of responsability for your actions.
However, despite being a resource management game, I find its endless mode (sandbox) kinda lacking. Even though the gameplay and mechanics are the same, the lack of a story and objectives to complete (apart from "survive") strips this gamemode from the core experience of the game, reducing it to a test of your abilities to stabilize the resource economy of your settlement. The random events simply don't impact the game enough, so once you've upgraded all your housing and productions to the maximum, there nothing more to do.
Overall, pretty fun if you can afford the DLCs.
