    I haven’t checked it out yet myself, but I honestly feel like it’s half people with an axe to grind about ai gaslighting themselves into liking it just to run Superficial defense for that shit a la the Harry Potter game last year and half disgruntled Pokémon fans who are just happy for anything that isn’t the game freak formula and hope this will spur some more creativity for the next game (it won’t)

    From what I’ve seen it looks … fine… like virtually ever other ark/rust kind of game out there but idk maybe it’s kinda fun? I’ll get around to it eventually maybe

      I gotta say, some of the most fun I’ve had with Pokemon has been with the Romhacks that Nintendo is constantly trying to quash and sue out of existence. Everything outside of that has been trash, practically since Red/Blue.

      like virtually ever other ark/rust kind of game out there but idk maybe it’s kinda fun?

      Its more cutesy, which I guess counts for something in a landscape full of “naked guy runs down a squirrel and guts it with his teeth for +1 food points” terminally gritty survival horror games.

        Yeah the only remotely fun experience I’ve had was for a few hours of legends before even that got a little stale, the hacks always seem cool I just haven’t set time aside to check them out

        Yeah one of the main reasons I never got into rust lol. But even checking out valheim and other stuff, something about that genre doesn’t appeal to me too much personally. Maybe this will tho

      It’s like Ark with a lot of quality of life features and a bit of factor.io with your group assigning themselves individual roles like watering, seeding and growing food. I think there’s a deathless option for the animals

      You can also get by without hunting I think because the animals will generate their unique drops on their own at the ranch structure
