Additional Feedback:

Features that requires improvement:

• Crafting
  • Pop-up window for inventory still needs to be manually opened with the key "I", to my opinion this doesn't smoothing the Crafting experience.
    • Make it pop-up instantly when opening the Crafting station.
  • Required material indicator is also something that should be added to my opinion.
    • The amounts of fails I had due insignificant materials, resulted in a waste of time due the amount of attempts.
  • I don't like the fact that you can't see instantly where the material is used for in crafting. Like in what slot to put it into, instead of just having the green squared enlightenment upon dragging into the designated slot.
• The cursor in-game is sometimes very unwanted, whenever you already closed the window it came with.
  • Prefer the cursor having it in the following way; Whenever you pop-up a window with a certain key, where you need the cursor for a desired feature. Make the cursor bound to that window, so when you close it the cursor disappears as well.
    • Currently I have to use key "Z" in order to remove the cursor, which is an extra unnecessary step.
    • This also counts for the Menu. When I close the menu with key "ESC", I would like to have the cursor gone as well.
• Please make it more daytime during the testing phase (Alpha). In a lot of testing cases you lack daylight in order to see what the results are from some features. Also for scanning landscapes it makes it very hard to see any irregularities.
• Vendor;
  • 300 buying needs some polishing, I'm referring to the "BUY AMOUNT" where standard the number "1" pop-up and you are not able to delete that number with the "BACKSPACE"-key, so you can insert the desired amount by pressing the amount you like. The Amount bar is fine as it is, but entering the amount you like is easier, if you can enter the amount through your keyboard.
  • When buying items, I would be nice to see what it's used for. Description should pop-up when you hoover over the picture-icon of the item or select it with "Right-Mouse"-click.

Features that I personally like how they are:

• The ability to craft an item with the materials, you would like to use. Also mixing handles with weapon heads is something I like as well.
• The Meduli scenery that I have seen so far.
• The fundamentals of the combat mechanics.
• The weapon swapping by putting the weapons in the action bar. Pressing the keys for the 1-Handed Weapon+Shield simultaneously.
• The respawn options to respawn at 'Priest' or 'Home'.
• The armor and weapon sets details look very neat.
