I must not be made for these games. Minecraft, this...Ugh. This seemed right up my alley, but I'm sort of hating it.
Nothing I do matters. I try to go on a quest with a pet and 20 potions and I may get like 1/10 of their bar off before I run out of stuff. Bosses are incredibly hard to kill unless I am doing something wrong. And given that the combat is so simple, while you think that would streamline it, the enormous HP pool off bosses sucks any right out of it. I mean, a 5 minute fight, sure. But A 15 minute affair to circle strafe a boss while dodging and slicing..l..over and over again, to take off maybe 1/10 of their Health isn't fun. At all.
It gets a giant Meh from me right now. Pretty world, some interesting things happening, but it's the same as Minecraft, any progress you make is infinitesimally small in size that it's just boring. I feel like I'm slogging and not making any impact on the world. Find 100 flowers. Find 100 Pieces of iron to make 25 cibe to make iron. They have to cut that down, but people seemed to love it in Minecraft, so maybe I'm just not in line with that. Played for 4 hours, Level 3. That doesn't cut it.

Boss fights are notoriously hard for solo people at the moment. So your sentiment is not unique. I stick to exploring and looking for blue or higher things to kill.
Everyone I've asked about it who was past lvl 20 or so said that soloing becomes roughly a gazillion times easier around lvl 20. You can start killing bosses quick enough solo to make a difference. I think Wollay needs to work on making the early levels more interesting and slightly easier.
My water mage is lvl 12 and I'm just starting to feel like I can actually make it though a tough fight. Still can't complete many quests due to the bosses being way to powerful for the level.
It's still just an alpha and I hope he addresses some of these issues.
