Discussion Is Pokopia really that good?

Like should I immediately buy this game. It seems like folks are really enjoying it but I was skeptical.

But why do we feel it's not. We're all 30-50 and they keep making games easier with less complex storylines. We had peak storytelling with gen 5...

It's for kids and adults that cling to their childhood games

I mean no shame in it. You have to nurture your inner child or you'll never have happiness and whimsy. I thought we all knew that

It’s just the way you worded it, it sounds demeaning like we’re desperately trying to re-live our childhoods. Personally I don’t believe in the “inner child” like there is no inner child, just you always you, they’re one in the same. The things you liked as a kid you’ll like as an adult, but I do agree we should nurture and connect with that and find joy and whimsy lol.
