Yeah I’ve been telling people I think it’s fun, but if they haven’t jumped on by now due to hype, they might want to wait until the game is less buggy and more complete. I imagine it’s gonna stay in early access for a long time.
When starting out without having seen all that much of the game beforehand, I saw a great potential for just that expectation you and I shared. The game keeps you jumping from one task to another, managing your initially growing base(s) to produce new necessities, catch new/more pals, explore the map and …well, that’s basically it, so far.
The gameplay loop so far is pretty barebones and the countless bugs, especially regarding basebuilding and -managing, grew all the more frustrating as I was forced to realize that there simply is no goal or endgame besides catching all the pals, exploring the whole empty map and maybe spend countless hours optimizing it all by breeding the best attributes in your pals, i.e. holding F and waiting.
A lot of that is hopefully simply a symptom of it being early-access though, I expect to have a better time in a few months when the hype died down and the game has matured a bit more.
Palworld
I was expecting factorio but with union busting knock-off Pokemon . I got a really generic open-world survival craft with normal knock-off Pokemon.
Yeah it is over-hyped. I enjoy it, but you do have to keep in mind that it is early access. Hopefully it will continue to get better.

Given how they’ve left their last two games… probably not.
Same here.

I tried it out bc it was so popular but it felt sooooooo boring to play.
I think it’s a fun game. But it certainly is overhyped as fuck.
I luckily refunded it lol
Modding hopefully will be a feature in the future. I’d love to have factorio with Pokémon slaves
