      I suggest you watch someone playing it on twitch for 30m. Or watch a letsplay on YouTube.
      It doesn’t seem like an asset flip. It’s heavily inspired by other games, and picks the best parts.
      It’s feature complete (certainly up to level 30, haven’t seen beyond that) and plays well. Very few bugs, mostly just jank geometry in the gigantic map.

        I have, it’s dry. It’s a ‘as wide as an ocean, as deep as a puddle’ kind of game.
        The devs couldn’t even finish their previous game, it’s sketchy.

      This feels like a reference to that article that dropped yesterday making the same claims based on nothing but anecdotes, suppositions, and Twitter threads.

      The game is fun. If this is a scam then it’s doing far too much work trying to be a full game

        I spent HOURS flying around exploring a map that never seems to end. I found more than enough shit to do while exploring.

        As you said, if it were an asset flip scam, its doing it wrong.

      Even if all the art was an asset flip, the underlying game has good mechanics and satisfying gameplay. People don’t play for hours straight even if a game is gorgeous is the game is boring.

      I’m with you. Even after checking out gameplay and everything. It just seems like lots of low effort shit jammed together.

      i stand with you, my very downvoted brother. granted i’ve seen like 7 minutes total of gameplay, but it just seems like another “build base, do resource chores” game with some very reddit “dude what if you could SHOOT pokémon⁉️” sprinkled on top
