Rust Reviews
Rust is a true survival game phenomenon. There's no other game like this with equally fierce and aggressive community. The gameplay is a unique experience that makes you feel and think primal, therefore it's not a title for everyone. The thrill may be addictive, but it's not a game that can be played for several hours a day.

Rust Console Edition generally maintains its core tenants and starts its console life on the right foot in most areas.
Rust is an unflinching multiplayer survival game that requires endurance and patience in order to really unlock its potential. The dynamics it creates in terms of player interaction are endlessly fascinating and prove to be a real boon for organic narrative flashpoints between players. Its pure multiplayer focus does mean it doesn't have what you'd call a traditional endgame, but it more than makes up for that with the unpredictability its social design brings.
So much can happen in Rust over the course of a week. Overcoming the elements is no small task in and of itself, and the game's punishing survival systems make it hard to recommend to everyone. But for those who are willing to put the time in and stick with it, Rust provides both a social sandbox and a deep, functioning crafting system. At times, it feels like anything is possible in Rust; like witnessing players double-crossing one another or stumbling upon a small sheet metal city in the desert. You just have to accept that nothing is permanent on the player-driven island. And sooner or later, you have to build everything back up again.
Rust is a malicious experience rife with betrayal, cruelty and greed. That can make it both frustrating and sublime in equal doses.
The world is a dangerous place. Not for those who do nothing to avoid it, but because of those who do evil because they do. Although there is room for dialogue and collaboration, Rust Console Edition highlights the imminence of evil, its inevitability,through a work in which we have to work our way step by step, but with consistency. It is possible that its harsh nature plays against less skilled players, although the gaming experience is improving from the first stone we place as a formal act.

Rust is a strange, harsh game that's worth exploring – but only certain parts of it, and only for so long. I'll never commit to constructing my own fortress, but I'll happily knock on the door of one belonging to another player.
Even with my negative player experiences, which is actually part of playing the game, I had a blast playing Rust. If I had more time to be consistent in a play schedule, I'd love to find a group of players to create the ultimate compound, helping and recruiting players who have no one and just dominate with having a good time!
