      Yeah this is one of those games you play for what it is now because chances are it’s about as finished as it will ever be.

      Starfield was dead on arrival and was a 80 dollar game. I have a lot of fun but i won’t play the game in a month and probably come back when it’s don or they add something. Why does every game has to be a forever game? Imagine playing super mario on the nintendo and your annoying friend comes over to tell you: you know that you will only play this game for 600 hours and then it’s boring?

      It won’t have the lasting power of Minecraft but what does? It is fun for what it is.

      Idk, it seems like the type of game that’ll have a small-midsize community after the initial hype dies down.

      After a year though, who knows.

      We might very well see Palworld plushies sitting between Minecraft Lego sets, Fortnite lunch boxes and Pokemon Amiibos in the game merch section of online shops 3 years from now. And we‘d just shrug it off as normal because it made it‘s way into gaming culture.

      As is the case for most streamer-bait games like this. Know anybody who’s still playing Only Up?

        You mean not available? They renamed the game on Steam back in October I want to say when they took it off the Steam Market because the developer no longer wanted the stress of having a big game title
