This is what an open-world pokemon game should have been. Not the buggy disappointing mess GameFreak gave us for 2 generations.

    Yeah if you’re going for a game that’s mostly Pokemon-based, this ain’t it.

    It’s just ARK but pokemon instead of dinosaurs, and you don’t lose them when they’re killed, and it has some of that botw/genshin exploration/collectability sprinkled in. It’s fun, but it’s a survival first, mons are one of the gimmicks.

      It looks like it’s almost ARPG-like combat with the Pals, and the Pals in factory building looks more interesting in terms of base building. There’s mention of exploring dungeons, too. I could see giving it a shot down the road.

      It looks like it could catch me more than most survival stuff. I’m going to keep an eye on it and see how it evolves. But the traditional survival loop definitely isn’t my thing, and all these articles calling it pokemon are super misleading.
