How should you choose the next step?

The launch-day walkthrough advice is to read the active quest before spending technology points. If the quest asks for an item you cannot make, identify the required technology or workstation and unlock that blocker first. This gives you a practical next action without pretending that every quest has a fixed order. The two guides describe this approach, but the complete current-build quest chain and every success signal still need confirmation.

What early systems should you keep moving?

The guides connect progression to wood processing, food, pottery, and fishing. One recommends prioritizing wood work and then farming and pottery; the other emphasizes using the quest log to decide which unlock matters next. Use those as reported priorities, not as a guaranteed optimal build order. Exact technology costs, named quest prerequisites, and the best sequence remain pending because neither guide identifies its tested build.

What is still missing from a full walkthrough?

The collected material does not establish every objective, dialogue choice, map location, item count, or completion condition from the opening through the later story. It also does not verify which reported Demo steps changed for the full release. Until those details are checked, use the active quest text as your in-game checkpoint and do not assume a guide route is complete. A verified walkthrough needs the current objective, required action, completion signal, and a common failure branch for each step.
