Should I wait?

Crosscode is my all time favourite game and I have roughly 2 hours in the demo of this game and absolutely love it (just talked to the villagers after weaving the nest). However, I am a heavy "immersion" type of player and since this was still and early access, was wondering how much my immersion would get affected. E.g. during the demo I was reading item descriptions and some had [Lore text here] or smthing to that effect which was a slight annoyance if I'm being completely honest (again personal preference). I did find the combat with the sword and crossbow very fun though and loving the characters alr. Regardless I will definitely get it with its 1.0 release, just wondering if early access will be the call for me since I'm looking forward with this game and it's collab.

Is this as frustrating as Crosscode?

Saw this game, looks awesome but I usually wait for 1.0 releases.

So I got Crosscode to see what the dev is like and... What a nightmare of hot and cold!!

Great production values and feel but so many puzzles are the wrong kind of frustrating.

There is no feedback when you take damage so I often go from full health to dead. Bosses have been great though.

The readability during combat can be next to 0 with how chaotic things are with normal enemies.

Did the devs learn the right lessons from Crosscode?
