It’s a (opt. Co-Op) Pokemon Survival Craft Base&Factory Building Game with Guns.
While sometimes buggy and rough around the edges, and without offering many original ideas, the ensemble of everything they threw together is really good.
Sure, it’s far from perfect, and every other moment, you can see the quite heavy inspirations they got from popular franchises.
But it’s quite good.
While not surpassing any of its inspirations in the field they got inspired in, it offers all these other things the inspirations missed.
It’s parts may not be that good, but overall, it’s the combination of those parts that make it.
Genuine question, what makes this game so popular?
It’s Ark, Pokemon, and BOTW thrown into a blender and filtered down to the good bits.
People have been wanting a similar open world Pokemon game for the longest time and Nintendo just hasn’t delivered. Plus Americans really love guns.
To be honest the guns come relatively late in the tech tree of the game, bows and crossbows are used most of the time.
Best features of best games crammed together. It lacks end game, but everything else is fun with few exceptions.
