350k players is criminally low for this game, especially considering it's on game pass.
It's not a perfect game, but it's exceedingly well crafted. And plenty of large studios (starting with Game Freak) should be taking notes on how to do an open world game that doesn't feel soulless or pointless.
I was thinking about trying it. I've always wanted to like Pokemon, but every video of it I've watched just makes it seem incredibly childish with the most boring combat system I've ever seen.
But, I like the idea of collecting Pokemon and needing to really search to complete a collection. But, I just can't get past the apparently boring combat.
This cassette theme seems interesting, but is the combat interesting at all?
It's much better than Pokémon imo, but if you don't like JRPGs at all you probably won't enjoy it.
