Is this game really that good or is it just massively overhyped? I watched a videogamedunkey video about it, and I know he overly satirizes things for humor, but it just didn't look all that great.
It's a survival crafting game. It's functional, but yeah, I think overhyped. Most people play for the novelty, and that covers for the boring gameplay.
That's overly reductive. I don't play it like a crafting game, I play it like a pokemon game and I'm having fun catching new pals while barely touching the base building.
You can do the same thing in Ark, that doesn't change what it is lol
Ark is worse than Palworld, even just in terms of polish.
In all fairness, the AI in Palworld is abysmal, too, but they at least acknowledge it (it's one of the top items to fix in their roadmap), and it's a just-released early access game, rather than a been-out-for-years title.
