I just don't have the attention span to play an MMO-tier grind anymore. Like I could do it but I've learned after playing FFXI, FFXIV, and Warframe that committing so much time to one game just leads to a weird feeling of emptiness when you finally do quit it and you ask yourself why you committed so much time to it in the first place. It becomes a weird addiciton/chore. I don't want my games to be this long and I honestly think that should be the objective opinion. Nobody should think playing one game for more than like 50 hours absolute max is a healthy thing.

No, you're definitely right. If anything they should have shortened the grind in half, but I'm glad they baked in options.

I've beaten the game pre and post release and I only have 45o hours in it over about five playthroughs, and with a lot of fucking around on a friend's home-hosted server. It's really not that long of a game, all things considered. Also, it's not Pokemon w/ guns, it's Ark with Pokemon. When you loo...

Instead of not finishing the game, I downloaded a mod in Palworld that lets you craft without resources. I regret nothing. I didn't appreciate what this game was until this weekend and it's not a small thing to dive into. It expects you to commit hundreds of hours to grinding out everything like an MMO. Not my thing but I have more respect for it now for what it is as a product and I had a lot of fun with it.

The world feels too much like BOTW for my liking so if somebody attempts another game like this in the future, I hope they'll make a better effort to make the towns feel like something you'd expect from Pokemon when it was good but adapted for today. It could be something incredible. Also take the timers off of the boss fights. There's no reason for that to be a thing.

>It could be something incredible. It is something incredible, for what it is.

Pushed through the rest of the game with ill gotten equipment. Still enjoyed it but I would have never finished it normally. I 100% accept that. It's like a 300 hour game.
