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.
Is the map big enough for 4 people? Friends have been wanting to get it and have me run a dedicated server, but I'm worried we're going to get a few hours into it and get bored from the lack of size and shit to do. Medieval dynasty pulled that on us...
There's more than enough map. It's huge.
And it will take a lot of hours to even see all the Pals, much less catch them all.
And they aren't just reskins of each other. So far every pal fight feels different. It's a unique experience every time you find a new one.
This is good to know then, thanks for the info
Oh yeah, map is pretty sizable
I'm currently playing it and I don't really think it's as messy as it appears on the surface. It has a pretty clear progression goals from what I can tell 5 hours in.
I agreed I expected a mess but actually got a very good, well thought out game. They definitely got a lot of their ideas from other games but I don't think that's a bad thing when they take all these separate ideas and mix them in a novel way.
Mmm. Monster Factory worthy? Always excited for new episodes of that.
You can give sheep guns, Im sure they will eat this game up
Saw that the game was made by the folks that are behind Craftopia, which definitely explains why it looks and plays the way it does, "without a vision". Here's to hoping this one actually gets finished and released.
