Sorry if this is redundant, I didn't see another thread focused on reactions to the game itself (just the Pokemon-ripoff news cycle).

I tried it on GamePass thinking, why not - might as well see how overhyped it is. And unexpectedly, I put in about 8 hours this weekend.

Despite some rough edges and some very clear inspiration, I am actually enjoying it. It has a very satisfying gameplay feedback loop and is an overdue (if involuntary) "modernization" of the basic monster-collector format.

It's good but as a fan of survival games like Minecraft, Rust, Valheim and Grounded it leaves a lot to be desired in that aspect of the game. It feels really early access (which yeah I guess it is so I'll concede on that) and feature non-complete. With that being said, I'm still coming back to it and enjoying it.

P.S. I'm also on gamepass and have sunk a few hours into cloud gaming as well and it's pretty good. As soon as Microsoft start adding something like native upscaling to xbox cloud gaming they're gonna be on a whole other level of playability.
