This game will be dead in 6 months.

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.

[–] starchylemming@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

checking out the other games of the dev on steam pretty much concludes just that

How? Craftopia got a new update like a day or two ago

[–] excel@lemmy.megumin.org 18 points 10 months ago

And there’s nothing wrong with that

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.

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.

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.

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

[–] Pika@sh.itjust.works 6 points 10 months ago

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

[–] wildginger@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 10 months ago

Man, people really do hear a phrase and slap it on anything they walk past

[–] RobotFK@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah,just like the previous Titels of the dev
