Usually i get bored really quick with games like that. I get annoyed when your character is always hungry, and when you're not hungry you're thirsty, and it takes 9 steps and 4 hours to plant one potato. Or you need a wiki page open on the second monitor at all times to even play the game. Palworld is really good at just being a good middle ground. I played for the weekend with a friend and we burned like 25 hours. Which usually doesn't happen to me. The game is really relaxing, because there aren't any stakes, the game doesn't make itself artificially hard for no reason. Fuck it, teleport with your materials, who cares. No, your animals can't die unless you make a knife and kill them. You don't lise anything when you die. So far i haven't have to look up anything. Sure i made mistakes but all i really wasted was some time, becuse figuring out game mechanics is fun in itself. It's really hard to rate a game like that. For me it's a 9/10, every problem i have is pretty minor and most likely due to early access. 8/10 is very fair.
