This is what an open-world pokemon game should have been. Not the buggy disappointing mess GameFreak gave us for 2 generations.
Well someone gave it this glowing review:
Is it good?
More like: game developer probably doesn’t know how to code a game to efficiently use servers.
I mean, maybe. But if you’re not a AAA studio just not having (or realistically, enabling from a cloud provider) enough capacity when your game sells way more copies than expected is entirely reasonable.
Its a very messy game. I dont think there was ever a vision for what kind of game this was going to be, they just grabbed whatever was hype at the time and added it in. Throw in pokemon, throw in fortnite, throw in breath of the wild, throw in meme postable character creator. I guess its working out for em.
The core gameplay is fun as hell. I’m using a crossbow and my flame fox thing to catch or knock out pals while riding my pink sheep-llama thing to explore the world and having a blast. For an early access game it also runs great and so far no game breaking bugs.
