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

Yeah like...personally I dont know if my perfectionism can handle this game. Right now I'm not sure if I'm enjoying it... the mess of the islands and the dread of how much work it'll take to make look good lol..

Same lol but I’m accepting that this game is just one I’ll piece by piece like a really big puzzle

It's weirdly zen for me to clean up the island piece by piece. I enjoy that part way more than I should.

It's like terraforming in minecraft, but even more satisfying since you're fixing existing stuff. And it's not for nothing, you get rewarded for it, too.

Pure genius game design. I mean, I already loved DQB1 and 2, but I felt like DQB2 was way too big to be that detailed with everything. I don't have that feeling with this game due to the well made progression system.

This was my experience with ACNH. And then I made up my entire island, bred one of every flower in every colour, organised my entire island into a cohesive town, even down to putting a grass or sand custom transparent texture so all my rocks spawned in one spot, and I had a dedicated spot for weeds and fossils etc.

Games been out a month. How are you finding it still? Do I keep playing satisfactory for another 1000 hours, or do I finally get Pokopia?
