    This game bites a lot of other games, but it’s fun to play which is more than I can say for any Nintendo Pokemon game in recent memory.

      Pokémon hasn’t pushed the envelope at all. I think this game really shows what you can do with battle pets in an open world and Nintendo should take notes. Not necessarily breaking their format or making a survival crafter, but there’s a lot of potential they ignore.

      I mean everyone’s favorite game Stardew Valley is a Harvest Moon rip-off. Gotta shit or get off the pot Nintendo.

        And Minecraft was a Infinininer ripoff. Portal was a version of Narbacular Drop. These people are utterly out of touch with reality

      I’d pick I up if there was an actual storyline/something that needs to be accomplished and not just an open sandbox where the point is to just build and upgrade.

          Yeah. It’s so crazy what ends up going viral sometimes. Over 5 million in a weekend for an early access from a no name company (essentially) is just nuts. Who knew a pokemon rip off with guns was going to cause such a big haul.

        Yeah, I played a decent amount and quit when I realized the first boss isn’t the lead-in to the story. I’ll come back when there’s more to it (especially since the Game Pass version is out of date).
