Aliens Hunter: Episode 1

I just played through episode one and it is promising so far. The only complaints are that the ocean is really empty with nothing to do. I really don't understand why it was that big. I was hoping to get to explore the seas, but all that happens is you get lost in the ocean and then have to reload a save to get back to where you left off, then just guess that you have to sail east to the rogger tower. I would have also liked more aliens. Through the game, you mostly just fight slimes??? Where the heck are the aliens??? Might as well call it Hunter, since there's certainly no aliens in this one... Finally, npcs. On one hand, they are peak, like the one miner that the player just fucking murders after learning the fire spell lmao. But on the other hand, there are some that feel pointless like the inn keepers. In a world that has insta healing crystals, there really isn't a need for them as far as I can see. Well, that's all I have to say on Episode one. Looking forward to playing episode 2.
