These days we're so used to see how good games turn into the worst games when ported to PC. Well, From Dust is one of them.
Though it's a great game controls will make you so angry. You can't control the breath, you need to build bridges but you can't *****ing make that breath go wherever you want! You'll most of the time end up grabbing water rather than some other element, it will be too late and tsunami will come and wipe out everything you've tried to make for the last 20 minutes and you will enjoy the "restart level" menu on the screen.
Graphics are not that great but are still acceptable. They look ugly (very ugly) if you zoom to your people. And I don't think any patch would fix this.
AI also needs patching. Sometimes your people cry for help though the road is all clear from water or etc. and you've built the bridge perfectly.
The idea of the game is really different, you might want to give it a chance but please NOT ON PC. If you are to play it, play on PS3 or X360.
